But despite the fallen trees, damage to cars and flying debris, some people have have managed to find the funny side of Scotland being battered by 100mph gusts.
We have compiled a list of the funniest tweets related to the storm to put a smile back on the faces of those whose trampolines have gone walkies.

I can't wait to hear about #StormAli on the news, and then again in the weather section of the news. And then on the regional news, and the weather section of the regional news.

If a trampoline lands in my garden I'm keeping it. What better way to teach the neighbours kids to look after their things then waking up and seeing me jump up and down having the time of my life #StormAli
