Storm Amy, the first named storm of the season, left damaged power lines, downed trees and frustrated travellers in its wake earlier this month, but its biggest long term impact will almost certainly be on fish.
As the final homes were getting their power reconnected, fish farm operator Mowi made an unexpected announcement - about 75,000 salmon had escaped from a damaged enclosure in the Scottish Highlands.
The rough seas and high winds had torn the netting at a pen at the Gorsten farm on Loch Linnhe, a sea loch in Lochaber.
At first sight it might look like a lucky break for fish that might otherwise end up on supermarket shelves - but marine scientists and conservationists are worried.
Scottish wild salmon begin their lives in Scottish rivers where they live for several years before turning into "smolts" and beginning their migration to the sea.
