Flooding misery in a third weekend of stormy weather
Met Office issue yellow warning for many parts of the country
A third consecutive weekend of stormy weather is bringing further flooding misery to already sodden communities.
A Met Office yellow "be aware" warning for wind is in place across much of the country until 10pm on Saturday night, one for snow and ice is in effect north and central Scotland until 9pm.
Travel disruption has been caused across Scotland by high winds and torrential rain.
Football fixtures have been hit too, Saturday's Championship clash between Partick Thistle and Dunfermline has been postponed because of a waterlogged pitch.
It follows the clash between St Mirren and Hearts at the Simple Digital Arena in the town being called off on Friday.
The Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (Sepa) issued flood warnings and alerts for most of the country on Thursday, lasting for two days.
Sepa said: “Prolonged periods of rain are expected over the next 48 hours across western and central Scotland.
“This may result in localised flooding and surface water impacting communities across these areas.”
