Foehn
Föhn is a peculiar thing. It is a type of wind which blows over the Alps (and no doubt other mountain ranges in the world as well). It has mood-altering effects on the inhabitants of Munich and neighbouring areas.
In fact, if a Munich resident is feeling dizzy, sick, depressed, has a headache, or is non-specifically ill any other way, then you can guarantee that someone will say: oh, it must be the Foehn
For a more technical explanation see
Wikipedia: Foehn

Is there Föhn at the moment? I feel dizzy!
Sometimes mis-spelt as: Fön or Fohn
Sometimes confused with:
Kreislaufstörung
