Inland places in Aberdeenshire don't seem to have got as much as Dyce and
Lossie, which both got about 90mm in the 48 hours to 0600z this morning.
Against that, Aviemore got only 38.8mm in the 48 hours, Aboyne 48.2mm and
ourselves (17 miles SW of Dyce) 61.1mm (measured at 0900z).

So in 48 hours we had very nearly as much rain as for the whole of August
(61.8mm).

according to 'weatheronline.co.uk', Lossiemouth 70 mm in 48 hours up
to 0600Z this morning: I'm sure places inland have had much more ...
still raining there, but should gradually ease off - radar shows
fragmentation.

Reports on Radio 2 at 5.00 of flooding in several areas with roads and
Bridges damaged in Elgin and "the wettest day ever" in Aberdeenshire.
I think I'd like to await confirmation of that one if Radio 2 don't
mind!
