This was the view of the river Tay this morning at Stanley, Perthshire, Scotland.
We had a very warm day yesterday but there was very heavy rain during the night and this was the result this morning. There was flooding everywhere as the drains could not cope.
Perth struck by serious flooding.
Perth city centre has been seriously affected by flooding after 40mm of rain fell during Wednesday morning.
Scores of homes and businesses were flooded and Tayside Fire and Rescue drafted in appliances from across Tayside to pump out buildings.
People living in central Perth were being asked not to contact the brigade unless they were in immediate danger.
The worst affected roads were Feus Road, County Place, South Street, Scott Street and High Street.
The B898 Dalguise Road by Dunkeld has been closed.
A Tayside Fire and Rescue spokesman said the situation was being managed on an incident by incident basis and priority was being given to those who were most at risk.
