Floods across Tayside following heavy rain

Floods across Tayside following heavy rain

Persistent rain caused flooding across Tayside today.

Fire crews were called out Dalno House in Tummel Bridge to help remove floodwater from the rear of the property.

Scottish Fire and Rescue also began monitoring for potential floods in Comrie shortly after 4am and began distributing sandbags to householders earlier this morning.

The village is particularly flood prone and Perth and Kinross Council has invested £1 million in additional defences.

One motoris had to be rescued from their car after it became trapped in a flood on the B954 between Meigle and Alyth at 7.35am today.

Firefighters then helped remove the car from the road.

The C423 New Alyth to Ardler was closed around the same time because of a fallen tree but had reopned by 11am.

Meanwhile, the A924 Bridge of Cally to Ballintium road was also closed at Blackcraig Castle around 10.30am.

The Met Office has issued an amber “be prepared” weather warning for Central Scotland that will remain in effect until 6pm today as more rain is forecast.

However, despite the deluge Scottish Fire and Rescue said there have been no reported incidents of flooding in Fife so far.
