WikipediaThough people tend to understand where Mu and Lemuria were they still aren't sure where Atlantis was situated. However, it is likely that it was an Island in the Mediterranean Sea. However, there is also evidence recently found that it could also have been near Cuba.One of the things people might not understand because major floods haven't been a big enough part of recent human history is that if carbon levels at that time were high because of industrial civilization or space travel or both Flooding and droughts could have really been extreme the way they are going to be now this century and beyond. So, the level of weather chaos at the time of Noah because of deforestation and carbon dioxide in the air might have been really extreme just like in the recent Russell Crowe movie.However, I added all the reference word buttons above that I thought might be useful for anyone of you that might want to do more research in possibly tying together better the Plato accounts of Atlantis sinking under the 40 days and nights of rain.If you read about the devastation across vast regions of California after almost 40 days of rain in 1862 and how it affected nearby states as well, the code word of "40 days of rain takes on new meaning".Begin partial quote:
Background
The floods were likely caused by precipitation from atmospheric rivers, or narrow bands of water vapor about a mile above sea level that extend for thousands of kilometers.[6]
Prior to the flooding, Oregon had steady but heavier than normal rainfall during November and heavier snow in the mountains.[7]
The weather pattern that caused this flood was not from an El Nino, and from the existing Army and private weather records, it has been determined that the polar jet stream was to the north as the Pacific Northwest experienced a mild rainy pattern for the first half of December 1861. The jet stream then slid south and freezing conditions were reported at Oregon stations by December 25. Heavy rainfall began falling in California as the longwave trough moved down over the state, remaining there until the end of January 1862 and causing precipitation everywhere in the state for nearly 40 days. Eventually the trough moved even further south, causing snow to fall in the Central Valley and surrounding mountain ranges.[8]

Also, the Great Flood of 1862 has always been cyclical for California and has always happened about once every 150 to 300 years. So, if we are still in a "normal" pattern and not in a completely abnormal pattern "relatively speaking" we should expect another "Great Flood" sometime between now and 150 years from now.
One of my favorite narratives about the flood is the description of the Sacramento River then. They described it as 20 miles wide and the little steamship the man was traveling up the river on was picking men out of trees where they hung for dear life when everything was swept away including farms, livestock, homes, everything but some large trees.
To imagine this today, if you live in southern California or have been there and have seen Catalina Island 26 miles off the coast of Los Angeles and Long Beach then you have some idea of just how far 20 miles is of water. The thought for me is pretty breathtaking considering how built up by towns and cities and farms the Sacramento River is from the San Francisco Bay up through Redding, California which would all be directly affected in the next big flood whenever that happens, if we are still in a "normal" historical pattern of flooding.
