Homes evacuated, cars abandoned and trains destroyed after dozens of roads flooded across Scotland. Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has issued over 90 flood warnings and 14 alerts as the storm “Frank” continues to batter Scotland, reports BBC.
The Scottish government’s resilience committee has met to assess the response to what environment minister Aileen McLeod described as a “very serious situation”.
The resilience team is closely monitoring the situation which is still developing as persistent rain continues to fall onto saturated ground - and is expected to deteriorate further as river levels continue to rise, even after the rain has stopped. (sic)

But, even with all the destruction, people of Scotland have not forgotten to appreciate the beauty of Natures Grand Demonstration.
