offering plenty to admire. That's it, more through the evening on the

:00:00.3:59:59

BBC News Channel More flooding is expected

:00:00.:00:08.

in parts of Scotland, as the country is still trying

:00:09.:00:11.

to clean up after Storm Frank. The Met Office has issued amber "be

:00:12.:00:15.

prepared" warnings for rain in much of north-east, and central Scotland,

:00:16.:00:18.

tonight and tomorrow. Our reporter Aileen Clarke

:00:19.:00:21.

is in Ballater, which was flooded Cisse, ballot was very badly

:00:22.:00:39.

affected by floods last week. They are giving up tonight in case more

:00:40.:00:44.

floodwater is coming this way in the next few days. We are trying their

:00:45.:00:49.

best to prevent it. There is a sandbag operation going on down by

:00:50.:00:53.

the golf course this evening. That is the route the waters came before.

:00:54.:00:57.

We're hoping to keep out any more floodwater and doing their best to

:00:58.:01:01.

alleviate that. I heard more about the operation that is happening

:01:02.:01:04.

tonight from the chief Executive of Aberdeenshire Council. We're

:01:05.:01:08.

standing at the road where the river was coming through coming along here

:01:09.:01:13.

and flooding properties behind us, so we have mobilised our defences

:01:14.:01:16.

and put them at this point in anticipation the water will take the

:01:17.:01:24.

same path again. Behind me you might just see lights burning upstairs,

:01:25.:01:30.

this is where they approached and I is being correlated from. There are

:01:31.:01:35.

people here from the Scottish Hydro board trying to reconnect people.

:01:36.:01:40.

But it is not just Ballater badly affected, Braemar was badly affected

:01:41.:01:43.

as well, and the bridge over to Braemar was out of action, it is

:01:44.:01:49.

crumbling after the water. There are big problems there because there is

:01:50.:01:53.

no phone signal, no landlines, no mobile phones. I had from the police

:01:54.:01:57.

that there will be to sort that out this evening. British Telecom are

:01:58.:02:03.

providing an emergency telecommunication centre next in the

:02:04.:02:06.

Fife Arms Hotel, and the Red Cross are providing a similar facility to

:02:07.:02:12.

assist the affected community. People will be will to make phone

:02:13.:02:17.

calls tonight hopefully? That is our understanding and are open. -- that

:02:18.:02:28.

is our hope. The problem is this persistent rain. Has been raining

:02:29.:02:32.

all day, that is what the forecast is. And the ground is already very

:02:33.:02:38.

sodden. People are watching and waiting to see what happens to the

:02:39.:02:43.

river when all the water comes down off the hill. They are hoping there

:02:44.:02:47.

is no snowmelt. If the temperature stays the way it is at the moment we

:02:48.:02:50.

hope it will not be as bad, but everyone here tonight is very much

:02:51.:02:54.

watching and waiting and doing what they can in the meantime.

:02:55.:02:58.

Detectives are appealing for help from the public after a violent

:02:59.:03:01.

attack on a 40-year-old man in Clydebank on early New Year's

:03:02.:03:03.

The man was walking near the railway bridge at Drumry Station

:03:04.:03:07.

when he was attacked by a group of people,

:03:08.:03:09.

Officers say it appears to have been a totally random attack.

:03:10.:03:16.

Football, and Dundee came from behind to win the city derby

:03:17.:03:18.

2-1, leaving United rooted to the bottom of the Premiership.

:03:19.:03:21.

It was a debut to forget for United's Japanese goalkeeper.

:03:22.:03:24.

Kawashima's mistake let Kane Hemmings score,

:03:25.:03:26.

and a deflected shot by Nick Ross proved to be the winning goal.

:03:27.:03:33.

Here are all today's Premiership results.

:03:34.:03:36.

Celtic beat Partick with a 90th minute goal.

:03:37.:03:38.

And Inverness won the bragging rights after the Highland derby.

:03:39.:03:41.

In the Championship, Rangers put six past Dumbarton.

:03:42.:03:43.

Alloa and Falkirk are still playing.

:03:44.:03:51.

Judith is here with the latest from the Met Office -

:03:52.:03:55.

many people worried this evening Judith.

:03:56.:03:56.

And will not be as bad as we have seen of late especially for the

:03:57.:04:07.

Ballater area. This is the rainwear concerned about, not the deluge we

:04:08.:04:11.

had last week. There is an amber warning in place for Tayside, Angus,

:04:12.:04:16.

parts of Aberdeenshire. We can expect localised flooding. The

:04:17.:04:20.

warning is in place until Monday, difficult travelling conditions as

:04:21.:04:24.

well. You can keep up-to-date on the BBC website. Here is the rain

:04:25.:04:30.

continued to push across eastern Scotland. Some rain elsewhere but

:04:31.:04:33.

not the persistence for that north-east corner. It will be windy.

:04:34.:04:42.

Tomorrow, we still have these weather fronts staying put across

:04:43.:04:48.

this part of the country with the winds driving rain into that

:04:49.:04:51.

north-east corner. That will be the next few days. Something drier and

:04:52.:04:57.

brighter towards western areas, but rain up to the north-west through

:04:58.:04:58.

the day. Strong south-easterly the day. Strong south-easterly

:04:59.:05:05.

winds. High temperatures of seven or eight Celsius.

:05:06.:05:19.

Low pressure is going to dominate the
