A CAR has been swept into the sea by Storm Kathleen, with staggering footage capturing the moment.
The grey vehicle can be seen being pulled into the Firth of Forth by footage from Lower Largo in Fife – seemingly from the village’s Main Street.
Waves can be seen engulfing the car as it is slowly dragged out to sea.
More weather warnings for wind and rain have been issued following the disruption caused by Storm Kathleen.
The Met Office issued four separate warnings covering southern England, western Wales and mainland Scotland from Monday to Tuesday evening.
The forecaster said travel disruption and damage to homes and businesses were possible.
The Scottish Environment Protection Agency had 16 local flood warnings and 6 flood alerts in place on Monday afternoon.

Cloud and rain will stall across parts of Scotland on Tuesday, but it will turn brighter elsewhere with scattered showers through the afternoon.
Unsettled conditions will continue into Wednesday as more cloud and rain arrives from the west and pushes eastwards throughout the day.
Oli Claydon, meteorologist from the Met Office, said: “Certainly for the wind warnings, it’s that combination of the high tide as well.
“If you’re near the coastline do take care, don’t get too close to any sort of edges or seafronts because you’re likely to see some wave overtopping at times and there could be debris being flown around the coastline.
“With the rain warnings, it’s just a case of knowing your flood risk.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
