'It's definitely the windiest I've ever seen Troon'

Dr Robbie Cumming captured footage of waves breaching the sea wall in Troon on his way to work as a GP on Friday morning.

Storm Éowyn has been battering the west coast as a rare red weather warning has come into effect in Scotland.

"This is a particularly bad storm," Dr Cumming said.

"It's by far the worst I've ever known living here for 15 years."

"I have now come home for lunch and my fences are down and there's carnage out there. At least schools are closed and people are being cautious and staying indoors."

"We have also changed appointments to telephone ones as we don't want people to risk coming into the surgery, although later this afternoon we will be seeing some patients."

"It is an unusual situation."
