Northwest Iowa — There are flood warnings issued in northwest Iowa as water levels continue to rise. Rock Valley Mayor Kevin Van Otterloo is closely monitoring the Rock River that runs north of town. It reached record levels during devastating flooding ten years ago, and its at those same levels again.
The projection was for a crest at about 23 and a half feet, about a foot higher than the record, but overnight the level was at about 24 and a half feet and still rising.
During the past several years, Rock Valley built berms to protect property and people. Sandbagging is underway not only in Rock Valley but other communities in nearby Lyon and Plymouth counties. Van Otterloo says evacuations have been ordered.
About 1:30 a.m. Saturday morning, Rock Valley officials set off the sirens in Rock Valley, meaning if people were in the evacuation zone to evacuate their houses if able. Upstream at Rock Rapids, emergency crews evacuated several homes in the wee hours of Saturday morning.
The Faith Reformed and Trinity Reformed churches in Rock Valley are serving as a shelter in that community and the Central Lyon Elementary Gym is serving as a shelter in Rock Rapids.

HAWARDEN, Iowa (KTIV) – The Big Sioux River at Hawarden could see some major flooding, which has spurred the community to take action.
Out in Hawarden, Iowa, volunteers and officials put together sandbags for potential flooding of the Big Sioux River. As of 12:30 p.m., the Big Sioux was at 23.5 feet, and Sioux County officials say it will crest at 36.8 feet on Sunday evening. The flood stage for the river is 20.5 and this crest will break the 35.2 feet record the Big Sioux has at Hawarden.
Several other communities like Hawarden are preparing just in case.
Another Iowa town, Akron, is anticipating the river to crest at 24.3 feet, which is getting close to its record of 25 feet. Akron officials and volunteers also plan to prepare sandbags Friday for what may come tonight and into the weekend.
Out in Rock Valley, sandbags have been delivered to the local police department and city officials are alerting residents that evacuations may be needed.
