Flooding recedes on the South Inch

Perth received 40mm of rainfall yesterday morning, causing flooding in many parts of the town centre. This area of the South Inch is designed to store water from the Craigie Burn Image Image when the river level is too high for it to flow out into the Tay. Now that the river level has dropped again the South Inch is starting to dry out.
