MINNEAPOLIS -- The storm left some of us grumpy: Complaining about being cooped up with the kids, attempts at e-learning and for some, still having to get to work.

During Monday morning's dusting of snow, the State Patrol said there were 158 crashes across the state with 28 injures. But as of midday on the third day of this snowstorm, there were 384 crashes statewide, and 33 of those involved injuries.
