Argyll Rivers and Loch Lomond
As of 22nd November 2009 at 11:12 am, a FLOOD WATCH has been issued for Argyll rivers and Loch Lomond.
A period of further rainfall is forecast for this area today and given that river and loch levels remain high, combined with saturated catchments could lead to some localised flooding.
This FLOOD WATCH is now in force until further notice.

SEPA being the organisation which claimed to find the “daughter elements” of radium mixed into the rock of Dalgety Beach (they are so scientifically illiterate as not to know that the single such element is radon, as gas rather than a rock) if SEPA say the water is disappearing expect to see an ark heave into view.
