In Angus, a 200-year-old bridge on the Rottal Estate was washed away by torrential flooding while a road connecting Marykirk also collapsed.
Nine miles away in the village of Edzell, residents were cut off by flood water from three rivers that surround it, leaving locals fearful of more rain forecast overnight.
Mrs Haggerty said: “It looks like it will happen again but worse, it is really worrying. They said we were cut off, but when the rain had stopped the flooding disappeared quite quickly. Dee Ward, 58, estate manager for the Rottal Estate said: “I think this is the new pattern, I don’t think we will go back to normal. The frightening thing is how much water is coming down in a short space of time.
She said the river had receded and power was reconnected after being down for 12 hours from 10.30pm on Thursday. First Minister Humza Yousaf said: “Storm Babet has now, tragically, claimed lives, and my deepest condolences go out to the families of those who have lost loved ones. Unfortunately, it is clear we have not seen the last of this storm.
