Residents and businesses in Fife are mopping up after heavy rain caused flooding across the region.
Firefighters were called out to Luthrie and Newburgh in the early hours of Monday morning and west Fife was also deluged.
Appliances were sent to Luthrie at 4.19am and 5.37am after a waterway burst its banks.
Fife Fire and Rescue Service said water was pumped out of the overflowing burn.
Meanwhile, firefighters were called to Abbey Road, Newburgh, at about midnight. David Ross, who runs Abbey Inn, said: ”There was a lot of flooding. A lot of water came down from the hills.
”There was a fair bit of water in my premises, but I got sandbags from a friend so that prevented a disaster.”
Residents in Dunfermline, Crossford and Cairneyhill were deluged on Sunday.
Fife Fire and Rescue Service were first called out around 2pm when a burn burst its banks in Cairneyhill.
A spokeswoman said: ”An appliance was sent to pump water out and alleviate the pressure at Glencova Crescent.”
There was standing water at Cairneyhill Road and Cairn Grove in Crossford, but ”water wasn’t entering premises,” according to Fife Fire and Rescue Service.
Dunfermline residents said filthy water was flooding Pilmuir Place on Sunday.
A spokeswoman for Fife Fire and Rescue Service said: ”The first call came in from a woman who said sewage water was coming up to the windowsill.”
A Scottish Water spokesperson said: ”Dunfermline, like other communities throughout Scotland was deluged by a short, but extremely heavy burst of rain. This resulted in some localised flooding.
”This incident in Pilmuir Place dispersed very quickly and the network was free of problems when checked. We apologise for any inconvenience.”
The council handed out sandbags to help stop the flow of water in affected areas.
Dave Lackie, senior manager, Roads and Fleet Operations said: ”Sandbags are available for collection from our three depots. but we will deliver them to residents who are at immediate risk.”
