Scots are set to be lashed with rain as the Met Office has issued a fresh yellow rain warning for later this week.
The new warning is in place for Friday morning and is set to last until later that evening, predicting up to over three inches of rainfall in some parts of the country over a 12-hour period.
Met Office forecasters have warned of flooding and a 'risk' of rain turning into snow in the north. It comes as chilly temperatures will bring snow in parts of Scotland this week due to the blast of cold air from the US.
