Are they trying to make the story more dramatic by giving the flood depths

What other unit would they use?

Well, er, feet, being the unit that everybody
understands. The observation was obviously made in feet because the
conversion to millimetres is ludicrously exact. All right, it's
609.6 mm. If they must use metric, then cm.
