Caravan swept away by flood waters and carried into middle of Scots road

Scotland's latest spate of heavy downpours is continuing to cause chaos on the country's roads – with one resident taking to social media to share images of a caravan that had floated onto a nearby road in Edinburgh.

Edinburgh Live reports that Andy Sharp shared the picture of the boarded-up motorhome on a road in the city, seemingly carried there after floodwaters had built up and taken it downstream. The capital and wider Lothians region have been the subject of yellow weather warnings towards the end of the week, with heavy downpours reported on Thursday and Friday.

Posting the photo on the Colinton Village Residents Facebook group, Andy said: "Watch out if heading towards the Cattery on Woodhall Road - road flooded near where City Dogs was and there is a caravan floating in the middle of the road."
