As Storm Malik battered Edinburgh on Saturday, January 29, and then Storm Corrie on Sunday night, many areas woke on Monday to see the aftermath of the weather phenomenon.
The Water of Leith Conservation Trust took to Twitter to share the devastation the storms left behind, saying: "Lots of storm damage on the walkway with trees reported to the forestry team of the Edinburgh Council at Blinkbonny Rd bridge and on the Rocheid Path."

The Water of Leith is the capital's main river, running through the city centre and the picturesque Dean Village. The river's bank makes one of Edinburgh's most beautiful walk paths, featuring old trees and a fast river stream.
Being the city's Urban Wildlife Site, the green corridor along the river is a protected and carefully looked after site.
A City of Edinburgh Council spokesperson said: "Following the weekend storms, many trees came down or were damaged. Our team are working to clear and secure fallen trees and will attend to the trees on the Water of Leith bank as soon as possible."
Despite a harsh weekend, Edinburgh is set to see more of the strong winds in the upcoming days, as the Met Office forecasts that the wind will pick up to a strong speed along with a chilly feel in the air with temperatures sitting at just 5°C.
