The clean-up has now begun after bad weather battered Scotland, damaging properties and disrupting events across the country. 

Around 90 flooded properties were evacuated and several motorists were rescued from cars after heavy rain lashed parts of the country yesterday.

Perthshire was particularly badly hit with serious flooding across the region.

The Met Office had issued a severe weather warning of rain for much of Scotland.

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) said it helped evacuate people from 70 flooded properties in one street in Alyth, Perthshire, and 20 properties in another road.

Firefighters also helped rescue several people stranded in their vehicles by flood water in the town.

Five properties in Bankfoot, Perthshire, had also been evacuated due to flooding.

Fire crews also attended reports of flooding in Perth, Blairgowrie, Glen Isla and Coupar Angus.

A total of 14mm of rain fell at Leuchars near St Andrews between 6pm yesterday and 6am today.

Campers at an island music festival also had to be evacuated because of high winds last night.

People at the Tiree Music Festival were sheltered in schools, the island airport and homes on the Hebridean island but but events are began again today.

Organisers thanked islanders who came together to help the festival-goers, some of whom sheltered in schools, the island airport and people's homes.

A number of flood warnings had been in place in Tayside, Perthshire and Aberdeenshire for today but most have now been removed as the worst of the heavy rain seems to have cleared.

The Open Championship was also suspended and will now play on for an extra day on Monday.

The clear up is continuing in Alyth where some cars were left piled on top of each other in places when the water cleared.

Scottish Hydro Electric Power Distribution said power has now been restored to all customers where it was safe to do so.

Engineers are still working to reconnect around 20 properties in Alyth and Scottish Hydro thanked customers for their patience and understanding during what it described as a "traumatic experience" for many people.

The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa) now has just one flood warning for the Innerpeffray to Bridge of Earn area, with most of its flood alerts also stood down.

The forecast for the rest of day is improving, becoming drier and brighter for most.

People can access the latest flood updates for their area via the Sepa website and sign up to the Floodline direct warning service by calling 0345 988 1188.
