Floods and storms

I mentioned yesterday that some severe flooding had taken place in northeast Scotland. Although the flooding has now subsided, the northeast continues to suffer in the aftermath of yesterday's severe weather. Winds up to 90 mph battered the area overnight, leaving many trees and powerlines down.

The power company is working flat-out to repair downed powerlines, but warn people to stay well clear of any electricity cables lying on the ground as they could still be live. This is obviously a universal warning.

A gallery of pictures of the floods can be viewed on this page.
