<p>The German Weather Service (DWD) has <a class="link" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/DeutscherWetterdienst/posts/711163442282648" target="_blank">confirmed</a> that a tornado reached the town of Bad Schwalbach on August 11. According to <a class="link" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.focus.de/regional/hessen/wetter-unwetter-entwurzelt-baeume-im-taunus_id_4050957.html" target="_blank">local media</a>, other areas in the states of Rheinland-Pfalz and Hessen were affected by the storm. This video, described as shot in Bad Schwalbach, shows some trees uprooted by strong winds – but, luckily for the uploader, two ribs of beef on his barbecue are unscathed.
