[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 569395, member: 3419"] HoundDog, I think it's something to do with-ionization of the atmosphere. Usually it's a fresh smell, after a rainfall. But some storms can have that lingering sulfur smell. There are very few scientists who study winter thunderstorms, and I remember reading about a guy who's pretty famous for it ... maybe in Nat'l Geo? He is just fascinated by the topic (as am I, a native Minnesotan). It was a fun read; wish I could remember the guy's name. Yes, they are rare but they've been around since the Earth was formed and had atmosphere, and they are still weird and spooky to us! [/QUOTE]
