A shocking picture shows a car which appears to be stuck in the water in a Glasgow park.
In a photo taken at Pollok Park in the Southside, a white vehicle can be seen, in the middle of the flooded playing fields.
White Cart Water, flowing across the greenspace, has flooded the area, which seems to have resulted in the truck being left there.
A local resident told the Glasgow Times: "It's normally just a walkable field."
This comes after several transport links, including train services and motorways have been affected by the severe weather.
A Glasgow City Council spokesperson said: “Heavy rain over the Glasgow area has led to flooding in Pollok Country Park.
“The park is open to visitors with both car parks in operation but people are advised to keep away from next to the White Cart Water, which has burst its banks in places.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
