[1] There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. [2] And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things? [3] I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. [4] Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? [5] I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. [6] He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.Luke 13 : 1-6

The Brief
- The City of Minneapolis is urging residents to be ready for the potential for severe weather on Monday.
- The Twin Cities and much of southern Minnesota are under a moderate risk of severe weather.
- The severe weather is expected to come in two waves.
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – The City of Minneapolis is warning residents as the potential of severe storms looms on Monday.
As the storm approaches, a large class who have professed faith in the third angel’s message, but have not been sanctified through obedience to the truth, abandon their position and join the ranks of the opposition. By uniting with the world and partaking of its spirit, they have come to view matters in nearly the same light; and when the test is brought, they are prepared to choose the easy, popular side. Men of talent and pleasing address, who once rejoiced in the truth, employ their powers to deceive and mislead souls. They become the most bitter enemies of their former brethren. When Sabbathkeepers are brought before the courts to answer for their faith, these apostates are the most efficient agents of Satan to misrepresent and accuse them, and by false reports and insinuations to stir up the rulers against them.

Potential for severe storms
What we know
There is a moderate risk of severe weather for the Twin Cities and much of central and southern Minnesota on Monday.
I have never passed through such a scene of conflict, such determined resistance to the truth—the light that God has been pleased to give me—as since the Minneapolis meeting.
I have again and again felt that I must make a decided move out of this determined opposing element, but every time the Lord has made known to me [that] I must stand at my post of duty and [that] He would stand by me. 3BIO 458.3 – 3BIO 458.4

The severe weather is expected to come in two waves.
First round
The first round of storms will hit the metro area around 5 a.m. Monday, bringing with it the potential for large hail.
We will catch a break by early afternoon. This will allow our atmosphere to regroup and destabilize for the second wave.
Second round
The greatest threat of severe storms is in the late afternoon/early evening.
All severe modes are possible: large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes.
The tornado threat is very dependent on the structure of storms. Click here to read our full forecast.
