When Genesis was written, the flood had already happened. Noah knew about the flood in advance because he was told to build the arc and given the details of how to build it by God.

He didn't Jonah ran away from god. god told noah to build the ark.
The answer is found in Genesis Chapters 6-8. God told Noah he would send a flood to destroy the earth because of the great wickedness of man. He warned him that the flood would last for forty days and forty nights. He told him that it would come at a time that he least expected it. He told Noah to build an ark out of gopher wood to keep his family (wife, three sons, Shem, Ham,and Japeth,and himself) safe from the flood to come!
