Cars stranded in Glasgow flooding days before key Cop26 climate summit

Glasgow has been hit by flooding just days before the key Cop26 climate conference is due to commence in the city.

Glasgow residents complained of roads such as Maryhill Road, Byres Road and Duke Street being submerged in water – with cars becoming stranded like in the above video.
