SOUTHWEST FLORIDA - Local governments are apparently relaxing a little bit due to the current forecast tracks of Hurricane Ike.

The Lee County Emergency Operations Center will not go to Level 1 Activation status on Monday, September 8. The Lee EOC was expected to open.

The Charlotte County Board of County Commissioners canceled their Special Meeting originally scheduled for Monday.

Sunday afternoon the National Hurricane Center had Southwest Florida on the very edge of the Hurricane Ike forecast cone.
