A greater area of Scotland will be under a two-day amber warning as fast flowing and deep flood water could create dangerous conditions.
The Met Office has issued an amber rain warning for north eastern areas of Scotland starting Saturday evening.
The forecaster warned that fast flowing and deep floodwater could cause a "danger to life" as downpours strike areas that are already well saturated with rain. Some places could be pummelled with 40 to 60mm of downpours and up to 80mm could fall. Communities could be "completely cut off" by flood water for several days and the loss of power and other essential services, such as gas, water or mobile phone services, is possible, according to the amber warning.
Network Rail Scotland warned of a "month's worth of rain" falling today and took to X, formerly Twitter, to share images of flooded stations and railways. Passengers travelling through and across Scotland have been hit by cancellations on LNER, Avanti West Coast, and Transpennine Express.
