Trees were uprooted, buildings damaged, homes were left without power and several roads were closed as exceptionally powerful winds battered the region on Friday.
Mercifully, it does not appear that anyone was seriously injured and there were no fatalities.
Award-winning Wilton Lodge Park in Hawick was particularly impacted with several trees lost to the elements and pathways covered with branches.
