Many highways in SE Minnesota remain closed overnight; No Travel Advisory for other highways in region

ROCHESTER, Minn. (8 p.m.) The Minnesota Department of transportation is recommending Sunday night that motorists continue to stay off state highways in southeast Minnesota because of dangerous winter driving conditions and closed highways.

MnDOT is working to open closed highways, including Interstate 35 from Owatonna to the Iowa border and Interstate 90 from the Wisconsin border west past Albert Lea. The Iowa Department of
