photos coming in from angus, which had been one of the worst hit areas along with aberdeenshire, perth and kinross as well. now, we ve seen 140 millimetres of rain in places over the last 48 hours, and that rain has been causing big problems with flooding. we ve seen around seven severe flood warnings being issued by the scottish environment protection agency. that s where flooding is expected and brings with it a significant threat to life. now, the rain continues to fall. the met office amber weather warning stays in force up until 9:00. after that, it will lapse. the rain will turn a little bit lighter and patchier. but that said, all of this rain still has to come down the river catchments, so flooding is likely to get worse for some communities before things start to improve. scotrail are reporting major disruption on services in the east. we ve seen several a roads completely closed due to flooding as well. so check before you travel if you have plans. but probably a better idea
