Elderly man missing after flooding in Perthshire
Emergency services are searching for a 77-year-old man who was swept away by the River Tay during heavy rain in Perthshire.
Police received a report of concern for the man at 17:30 on Sunday near Strathtay.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service said two appliances and two boats were involved in a search on Sunday night.
Two severe flood warnings for Perth and Aviemore remain in place after the weekend.
Efforts to find the missing man resumed on Monday morning.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Conditions on the River Tay remain challenging and specialist resources are being used, including drones and the Police Scotland helicopter, to find the missing man."
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service confirmed it searched the area for more than three hours on Sunday night.
A Maritime and Coastguard Agency spokesperson said: "The coastguard helicopter from Prestwick was sent to assist Police Scotland with a search in the Strathtay area on Sunday, following a request for air support.
"A further request for resources has been made and it is currently being assessed on how teams can best support the search effort."
The Met Office issued an amber weather warning for parts of Angus, Perth and Kinross, Aberdeenshire, Moray and Highland over the weekend.
Heavy rain and flooding was seen throughout Scotland, with many roads too flooded to pass.
As a result of the heavy rain, Scotland's farmers have said they have suffered some of the biggest losses in food crops the industry has ever seen.
The National Farmers Union (NFU) Scotland said millions of pounds worth of unharvested vegetables, potatoes and other crops have been damaged by the flood waters.
The union's president, Martin Kennedy, said many would not be able to absorb the significant losses due to the the tight profit margins farmers have to operate under. The full impact will not be understood until food waters fully recede, he added.
The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa) warned people to stay safe as flooding concerns remain.
Severe flood warnings for Perth and Aviemore as well as dozens of local flood warnings and alerts were in place on Monday morning.
And the Met Office has also issued a yellow weather warning for heavy rain in the west of Scotland between 06:00 and 21:00 on Tuesday.
Work is underway to clear debris from the A83 Rest and Be Thankful after the rain caused six landslides.
BEAR Scotland said 9,500 tonnes of debris has been cleared so far, with another 2,000 tonnes on the hillside likely to need removed before the road can safely open.
Several rail lines remain affected by the weekend's weather, with routes suspended between Inverness and Kyle of Lochalsh, Perth and Inverness, as well as Perth and Dunblane.
Anyone travelling is urged to check their journey for updates.
Janine Hensman, Sepa's flood duty manager, said: "Across the weekend, Scotland faced down a serious and significant severe weather event.
"We saw widespread travel disruption to road and rail networks and impacts in communities throughout the country.
"Whilst today sees an improving picture, we're warning communities to keep mindful across Monday as flood water impacts remain."
Ms Hensman urged people not to walk or drive into flood water.
She said: "We've still got extremely high flows on the larger rivers, particular the rivers Spey and Tay, and many places where flooding still remains, particularly near rivers and where surface water has collected on roads.
"Its really important people understand the danger."
