It comes after the environmental agency released a statement warning residents of the north-east to be prepared for “Significant flooding ” today.
Heavy rain during the day continuing to tomorrow morning may lead to severe flooding in parts of Aberdeenshire.
Particularly at risk are the rivers Don and Deveron and the rivers in the north east of the area.
In a statement regarding the warning for Stonehaven SEPA said: “From early afternoon on Thursday, the Carron Water level is expected to be at the underside of the Green Bridge.
“Out of bank flow may occur due to possible blockages. Low Wood Road and Cameron Street are at risk of flooding.
“The rainfall is expected to continue and further flooding impacts are possible.”
Aberdeenshire Council have deployed flood barriers.
