Storm Gertrude: Edinburgh cleans up after winds batter Capital
STORM Gertrude has battered the Capital this morning, causing widespread travel chaos and causing a wall to collapse at Oxgangs Primary School.
The Forth Road Bridge was closed to all traffic earlier this morning, after recording wind gusts of up to 91mph. It has since reopened to all traffic except ‘wind-susceptible’ vehicles.
Schoolchildren turned up to Oxgangs Primary in Edinburgh this morning to find hundreds of bricks in a colossal pile.
