Thankfully not actually in my property so far.

35 mm of rain here (24hrs) and obviously much, much more just to the west
have resulted in the Tay bursting its banks from Loch Tay right down to
Dunkeld.The normal beach at the head of the Loch at Kenmore (about 30 foot
of sand and shingle) has been submerged and the Loch is right up to the
road.


The road into Aberfeldy from Weem is submerged as is the golf course,
caravan park and most of the valley floor. In parts the floodwater has
widened to about 1/4 mile in parts

Currently having to detour by 12 miles or so to get into town, and that is
going through about 5 or so fords. The Tay is right at the road on the
Eastern and Western exits and it would not take much to breach. Quite a few
farms are completely surrounded by the water.

Unlike the August floods it seems that the Tay is the most affected this
time. Our burn has risen by around 1 meter but has receded in the last 4
hours, it was rather angry and noisy at first light. having just cleaned up
from August I am somewhat nervy at this time. I am hoping that we get snow
tonight
