Floods where Moses was found (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inrushes

'floods' is the definition.
(inrush can mean a flood or influx)

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Another definition for inrushes that I've seen is " What could cause floods".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
