👉 The term "landsturm" is a German word that refers to an unusual and often dangerous weather phenomenon. It occurs when strong winds, which are often caused by thunderstorms or other natural phenomena, create high pressure systems in the atmosphere. This can result in severe storms such as tornadoes, hurricanes, or even typhoons. The term has its origins in German mythology, where it is associated with the stormy and violent nature of certain types of storms.
