Pretty much every community around the world has a flood story and many communities have an atlantis story. Not a coincidence

Back to this post about floods, the Missoula Floods were a reoccurring flood scenario from the rapid melt waters of the North American glacier fields.
When these ice dams broke, it released more water than all the rivers combined in the world. This flooding took place over a period of 2,000 years, roughly from 15,000 - 13,000 years ago.
There are massive boulders in the middle of fields that could have only have been transported by a flood of biblical proportions.
The Channeled Scabland has incredible in your face evidence of a flood that is difficult to comprehend.

the largest discharging ≈10 cubic kilometers per hour (2.7 million m³/s, 13 times the Amazon River). Alternate estimates for the peak flow rate of the largest flood include 17 cubic kilometers per hour and range up to 60 cubic kilometers per hour. The maximum flow speed approached 36 meters/second (130 km/h or 80 mph).
