Storm Otto brings disruption to Scotland

The first named storm of the year has brought widespread winds of more than 60mph, with Cairngorm mountain recording speeds of 120mph.

Around 30,000 homes were left without power and dozens of schools closed as Storm Otto caused disruption across Scotland.

High winds and fallen trees have caused damage to vehicles and buildings.

Trains, buses and ferry services have been delayed or cancelled, with trees blocking many routes in Aberdeenshire.
