ANGUS Council has confirmed some homes in Monifieth, near Dundee, will be evacuated after the Dighty Burn burst its banks
It comes after hundreds of people were evacuated from Brechin, Angus, due to concerns over flooding on Thursday.
Councillor Lloyd Melville could not confirm numbers affected in Monifieth but urged residents to leave if they are asked to.
Melville said: “It will be hard for some people to leave their homes but they absolutely need to do so if asked.”
He also thanked council staff: “They have been absolutely knocking their pan in (to keep people safe).
“They are the people who need the thanks. They are literally saving people’s lives.”
Those who are evacuated are to set be relocated to a rest centre at Dundee International Sports Centre.
