Police Scotland Assistant Chief Constable Stuart Houston tells BBC Radio's Good Morning Scotland officers and agencies on the ground are facing "extremely challenging conditions".
He says the force is working with its emergency service partners and other agencies to ensure "the best possible support" is given to flood-hit communities.
Assistant Chief Constable Houston thanked those who had followed the travel advice.
He adds: "The red warning is still there and significant flooding issues do pose a threat to life.
"I would urge that caution to everybody to still heed those warnings about not travelling into areas specifically affected by this extreme weather."
Assistant Chief Constable Houston was unable to provide any more details about the woman's death in Angus and says inquires remain "ongoing".
