See the Service Dependencies section of the docs.  It sounds like you
want the remote checks to be dependent on the local ones, and not notify
if the local service is in a warning state.  The examples at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/dependencies.html should give you
a pretty good idea how to do that.
