The President of the USA landed in Edinburgh to attend COP26.
He will be joining 139 world leaders and 25,000 delegates in Glasgow to discuss how the world can tackle the climate emergency.
This comes after a yellow weather warning was given to Scotland last week as Edinburgh saw heavy rain and localised flooding where as in the borders two bridges were washed away.

Edinburgh Live reported that President Joe Biden flew into Edinburgh Airport from Rome and Air Force One touched down in Edinburgh Airport around 10.30am today.
He then was transported to Glasgow where he is expected to speak at 2.30pm at the opening talks.
However, while Scotland welcomes people from all over the world, Twitter were quick to comment on Biden's decision to fly and stay in Edinburgh.
One said: "Conference to reduce carbon emissions, held in Glasgow 8 MILES from Glasgow Airport. Yet, @POTUS in Airforce flies into Edinburgh 40 miles away and then travels in large convoy to Glasgow."
Another added: "Why are you travelling up and down the M8 from Edinburgh every day with a fleet of vehicles? Sending the wrong message"
"More fuel made on this trip from Edinburgh to Glasgow and back than what I’ll probably use in 6 months" A third criticised.
But others were excited to welcome the President to the Capital: "Looking forward to welcoming Joe Biden to Edinburgh, where he is staying during #cop26"
Another said: "Scotland is officially on the global map now that @POTUS has arrived on air force one in Edinburgh."
The White House travelling pool is in Edinburgh and many delegates and leaders will be staying in the city.
The Queen was originally planning on staying in Holyroodhouse but has been advised to rest after spending a night in hospital.
