The last really serious flood there was in September 1995 when two such events occurred about 10 days apart. Kinloss collected 272mm in 11 days. The floods on the southern flank of the Moray Firth were catastrophic. By all accounts the historic 'Moray Flood' of August 1829 was at least one order of magnitude greater even than 1995. Philip |

Here, 40 miles north of Inverness, it is still heavily overcast and windy, but the rain is now intermittent after 36 hours of continuous rain. Everything sodden and it looks like more to come on Sunday, but if Darren is to be believed, our geological excavations on the west coast next week appear to be blessed.

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). Ian Bingham, Inchmarlo, Aberdeenshire. 80m asl.
