Where is the scripture that talks about the huge asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs? Apparently, a new SCIENTIFIC discovery can prove that the fossilized remains indicate a basic extinction of life in a brief period of time directly associated with the meteor. No 40-day flood mentioned, but a positive date of 17 million years ago. Proof, not faith.
The rain was 40 days and 40 nights.
The flood lasted 371 days or 365 days depending on what kind of calendar you use.
The Bible is a divine revelation of truth. It is not written as a scientific hypothesis .
What has been revealed has been proven. Blind faith? Not me.

(7) The flood was the cause of all this.
