Flood stories are from all over, the sea fossils I have found at higher elevation, indicate a flood. The standard explanation is that the land folded up from underneath; great theory, but then why arent those fossils found at lower altitude, in the same region. If they are found, they should be in far more quantity. If the water level was higher, then that refutes the argument that the sea level couldnt have gotten that high.
"If the water level was higher, then that refutes the argument that the sea level couldnt have gotten that high."
There are a lot of reasons millions of year old fossils have been found in abundance at every elevation including below current sea levels.
"The standard explanation is that the land folded up from underneath; great theory,"
You mean Plate tectonics. Which is one reason there are fossils found at the top of Mt Everest above 25,000 feet.
"
LIGHT ROCKS ARE PUSHED UP AS HIGH PEAKS
Heavier rock is pushed back down into the
earth's mantle at the point of contact, but lighter rock, like limestone and
sandstone, is pushed upward to form the towering mountains.
At the tops of the highest peaks, like Mount Everest, it is possible to find
400-million-year-old fossils of sea creatures and shells that were deposited at the bottoms of shallow tropical seas. Now they are exposed on the roof of the world, over 25,000 feet above sea level."

The Valley of the Whales
"There is another even more ancient Egypt that is known to very few people. The
Fayoum area contains some of the best-preserved paleontological sites in the world one of which is Wadi Hitan or the Valley of Whales. This is a remote valley in the
Western Desert of Egypt. At 150 kilometers southwest of
Cairo, the valley is located near the Al-Katrani mountain range, a well-known and valuable geological site for its rare vertebrate fossils and megafossils.
"There is considerable evidence which indicates that the basin of Wadi Hitan was submerged in water
some 40 to 50 million years ago. At that time, the so-called Tethys Sea reached far south of the existing Mediterranean. The Tethys Sea is assumed to have retreated north and over the years deposited thick sediments of sandstone and limestone visible in rock formations in Wadi Hitan.
There more than one one place Earth where it hasn't rained for some millions of years.
Both in the
Dry Valleys in Antarctica and in the Atacama desert.
WHAT IS THE DRIEST PLACE ON EARTH?
"The driest place on Earth is in Antarctica in an area called the Dry Valleys, which have seen no rain for nearly 2 million years. There is absolutely no precipitation in this region and it makes up a 4800 square kilometer region of almost no water, ice or snow. Water features include Lake Vida, Lake Vanda, Lake Bonney and the Onyx River. There is no net gain of water. The reason why this region receives no rain is due to Katabatic winds, winds from the mountains that are so heavy with moisture that gravity pulls them down and away from the Valleys."

How The Earth Was Made: Driest Place On Earth
"A look at the driest place on Earth, the Atacama Desert in South America which is 50 times dryer than Death Valley; and how even in such a barren place, bacteria can still thrive."
The above video is great and if you want to see something truly amazing at least watch at 7 minutes in, as there might be a place there where is hasn't rained for at least 25 or more million years. But the Atacama was formed by Plate tectonics around 150 million years ago.
There is a problem with a floods that happen after the last ice age and millions of year old fossils. There have been many ancient salt water sea beds over the history of Earth.
