Another weather warning has been issued for Scotland as forecasters anticipate up to 40mm of rain to land over a 12-hour period.
The Met Office has put a yellow warning in place for central and southern Scotland from 3am to 3pm tomorrow.
Experts warn that heavy downpours could lead to the flooding of homes and businesses in some areas.
Bus and rail services are expected to be impacted by the adverse conditions. Water on the roads could lead to disruption to commuters during this 12 hours spell.
Falkirk, Dumfries and Galloway, Edinburgh, East Dunbartonshire, East Renfrewshire, Glasgow and Ayrshire are among those set to be hit the worst by the conditions.
A forecast from the Met Office reads: “Areas of heavy rain are expected to develop across central and south western areas of Scotland early on Friday morning, leading to a risk of some flooding, especially where heavy rain has fallen over recent days.
“Accumulations of 15 to 25mm are likely, and locally as much as 40mm in the west.
“Rain will clear away northwards by mid-afternoon.”
Large parts of Scotland were hit by flash flooding after a drenching of heavy downpours during Wednesday and overnight into Thursday morning.
Cars were pictured stuck in flood waters while rail services were also impacted this morning due to the conditions.
The Scottish Environment Protection Agency has issued 20 flood warnings across central and southern Scotland ahead of the next round of torrential rainfall.
BBC Weather forecaster Nick Miller said that an accumulation of around 200mm of rain could land in this area before the week is out.
The recent downturn in weather is said to be the result of a weather system travelling from the Atlantic into the north of the UK.
Speaking on Tuesday, the meteorologist said: “The impact of this weather system is very clear on rain totals for the next couple of days. It will be very wet in south west Scotland…some areas could end up with 100 or 200mm of rain with a risk of flooding before the end of the week.”
