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.
Conditions aren’t likely to be improved by Monday morning, and it’s likely that many closed highways will remain closed into Monday. 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
Transportation has closed I-35 from Ames to the border and has indicated it won’t likely open until Monday.
