Also, what comes to mind, if it never rained before ''the flood'', then how would the rivers & lakes water supplies be replenished? The mountains need rain/snow to provide runoff for rivers and lakes. Also vast prairie lands need rain for rivers and such.
If it never rained before the flood, then how would wild animals, horses and fish survive if there was no water provided to replenish lakes and rivers as all the water would have been stored in the skies??
