*Après dance music from Guacamole DJ
What does this mean? i know its a album of french cover songs by Iggy Pop. Is there a Frenchie that can help me out? :think:
Normally aprés would be used in the context of 'aprés que...' or 'aprés + infinitive', or 'aprés que +subject +indicative' but before I get myself in trouble with my limited knowledge of francais, aprés is most often used by Americans as a simple substitution for 'after' or 'afterwards'...

Forecast calls for a warm sunny afternoon followed by numerous cool refreshing beverages and some kine grinds while grooving to some killer beats surrounded by cool people. Maybe a little wind too!

My kind of day!

ikitesurf is calling for south west flow for the next 4 days. 8)

"SW flow dominates the scene. Think RIO DAZE for the duration!

For the next 4-7 days SW flow dominates the wind scene as the North Pacific High vacations in the Gulf of Alaska depriving us of any NW flow. Meanwhile in the AM each day west of the Bay Area a large counter-clockwise spinning eddy forms at the surface and aloft throwing marine layer clouds deep into the bay. At the same time the Central Valley thermal low deepens in the Redding area giving the wind a SW slant. Way aloft at 18K feet series of upper troughs and near Cut-Off Low passing to the north keep the marine layer to deep and stirs SW flow on the hill tops. This is a good Sherman Island and probably San Luis set up for low 20's wind much of the day. Clearing is unlikely at Crissy and the coast and other sites near a SW facing gap in the coast range. Fog permitting the best bay sites will be Larkspur, Pt. Isabel, Oyster, Tigers, Berkeley, Treasure Island and perhaps Palo Alto.

Saturday and Sunday a near Cut-Off Low edges into far Northern California and its southerly flow reinforces the pattern seen Friday. Expect a very deep marine layer with some sites mired in clouds. Best bet is Sherman Island!"
