Not sure about all floods, but the last flood was a combination of an incredibly late snow melt combined with a storm that got stuck in the mountains and dumped all of it's water onto still frozen ground. No absorption and combined with the late snow melt it just all went directly down the mountains into the drainage basin.
Coastal flooding increasing with global warming, I totally buy that. Our last one however, not the case.
