Roads were also reported to be flooded between Leven and Craigrothie and St Andrews, on the B9130 leading to Markinch and on the B981 at Fordell.

A yellow warning for potential flooding has been issued by the Met Office with heavy rain forecast across Scotland until Sunday evening.

The statement added: “Within the warning area many parts will see 15-30 mm (0.5-1 ins) of rain during Sunday with the potential for as much as 40-50 mm (1.5-2 ins) in places, much of this falling in a 6 hour period.

“Heavy rain may cause some transport disruption and flooding in places on Sunday.”

The Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) have also issued a flood warning advising of heavy and persistent rain is expected to affect the area  through until Sunday afternoon.

It added: “Some localised river flooding to low-lying land and roads is likely, this will be accompanied by difficult driving conditions and ponding of water in known trouble spots. Isolated property flooding could also occur.”

A spokesman for the Scottish Fire and Rescue service said there had been no emergency call outs up until 1pm Sunday but that a close monitoring of the situation would continue.
