Not sure there isnt. They do have a water God. Reading about him leads you to different kinds of stories about floods. Beyond that though there are other cultures that record it.

That's kind of a dodge. Something as massive and world-shattering as a global flood is not likely to be told of in metaphor.

Its ok to call it a dodge if you want. But there is more than metaphor out there.
I'm not sure I could trust the MSM to report it accurately no matter when it occured.

well, actually, the Genesis Flood wouldn't be in the Egyptian records at all... there'd be records right up to that date, and then a hieroglyph meaning "a sodden gurgle", and then nothing. ever. after.

as this is contrary to fact...
