TEASE ONE

SOUTHWEST FLORIDA GETS SOME RELIEF,

FROM THE *UNSEEN DAMAGES OF THE B-P OIL SPILL.

A) BP SPILL GRANT TO SANIBEL-VO WIPE

BP SPILL GRANT TO SANIBEL-OC

TWO YEARS AFTER THE WORST ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTER IN U.S. HISTORY-

B-P BEGINS DISTRIUBUTING MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN SETTLEMENT MONEY TO AFFECTED AREAS.

**ONE OF THOSE AREAS HAPPENS TO BE THE SECOND MOST VISITED ATTRACTION IN LEE COUNTY -- THE DING DARLING WILDLIFE REFUGE.

BP SPILL GRANT TO SANIBEL-PKG

IT'S BEEN MORE THAN TWO DECADES SINCE THE BANKS' VISITED DING DARLING NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE ON SANIBEL ISLAND.

We had been to Sanibel Island on our honeymoon 23 years ago and just coming back to take a look and see what it looks like today.

NOW, THEY AND OTHERS AROUND THE COUNTRY MIGHT START TO SEE COMMERCIALS OR PRINT ADS SHOWCASING THE REFUGE.

The importance if protecting our wildlife is huge. And just getting that in front of people is a wonderful opportunity.

BIRGIE VERTESCH WITH THE DING DARLING WILDLIFE SOCIETY -

THE NON-PROFIT SIDE OF THE REFUGE -

SAYS THEY'RE GETTING 60-THOUSAND DOLLARS FROM THE B-P TOURISM AND SEAFOOD PROMOTIONAL GRANT.

SHE SAYS IT'S PART OF THE SETTLEMENT AFTER THE 20-10 SPILL.

THE MONEY WILL BE USED TO PROMOTE THE PARK AS ECOTOURISM DESTINATION.

Want to tap into those people that did not come because they thought the oil had spilled here on the beaches. We're trying to bring them back here to see that we ate pristine were clean we're beautiful and it's all about being surrounded by wildlife.

VERTESCH SAYS THE REFUGE DID NOT HAVE DAMAGE FROM THE OIL.

BUT VISITOR AND CONCESSION NUMBERS ARE DOWN FROM ABOUT 10 TO 20 PERCENT.

For a small non profit we've never had a marketing budget.

BUT THAT BUDGET WILL GET A BOOST FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS.

WITH HOPES OF ATTRACTING VISITORS LIKE THE BANKS. TAKING IN ALL IT HAS TO OFFER.

it was very quiet, peaceful, natural setting and we enjoyed that a lot.

SNOW COVERS THE GROUND IN A PART OF SOUTHWEST FLORIDA!

A) SNOWFEST-VO

STORMWAR 7 OPEN-CLIP

WEATHER-WXWALL

FULL WX

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE ABC7 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

TEMPERATURES WARMING

With no cool fronts expected to approach this weekend, temperatures will continue to run a couple degrees above normal for this time of year. After starting things off with morning temperatures in the upper 50s, look for daytime highs to warm nicely into the low 80s.

A strong easterly flow will keep winds gusting up to 20-25 mph at times, so today will be another breezy one as well as Sunday.

Tonight's weather should be very pleasant. Our sky will stay clear and quiet, and temperatures will cool to near 60 degrees with a nice easterly breeze.

Sunday will almost be a repeat performance of today's weather. Our sky will become partly cloudy by the afternoon, and temperatures will warm into the low 80s. The breeze will continue to stay rather stiff with gusts reaching 20-25 mph.

As we head into next week, our forecast stays pretty consistent with no major cool fronts expected to pass through. This means temperatures will keep running slightly above average, and we'll enjoy a mix of sun and clouds each day.

Moisture will stay very limited, so rain chances through next week will generally be less than 20%. By the end of the week there's a chance enough moisture could build in to produce a few isolated showers, but shower prospects look slim at best.

SNOW FEST-VO

DESPITE THE WARM TEMPERATURES,

THERE'S SOME SNOW IN SOUTHWEST FLORIDA TODAY.
