Scots are being warned to expect further blasts of winds and downpours over the next week as the Met Office predicts a 10-day spell of wild weather.
Forecasters say the autumnal mix of wind and rain will 'dominate' the weather over the coming days. It comes as bands of heavy rain and accompanying blustery winds are set to move in from the northwest.
Road users across the UK have been warned to take care amid the strong winds and heavy rain. Motorists have been urged to plan ahead, check their cars before heading out, and to take extra care 'at all times'.
