Dutchsinse 6h Slight smell of sulfur this morning. 50 miles West of Saint Louis Missouri. Yesterday, a friend came to visit, he reported to me that HE smelled "gunpowder" or sulfur smell as he was driving here yesterday from South Saint Louis. Extreme haze in the morning accompanying the light sulfur smell. Could be coming from the New Madrid shifting, all the hot spots burning. Certainly this is rare to smell anything like Sulfur here in Missouri. Pocket of sulfur dioxide gas detected over my area now [ link to www.facebook.com (secure)] Quoting: ~Jazz~ well their are a lot of hot springs in the area of Ozark mountains on both of the Arkansas Missouri boarder, maybe little quakes to release some magma sitting underneath or maybe it will be the birth of taller mountains in the area Quoting: sonofthemorning As a native Arkansan and long time ago geography major I must chime in here. The Ozarks are not mountains. They are a plateau of limestone that has eroded. There is a little tiny mtn range that abuts the Ozarks called the Boston mountains that are young mountains. And then of course there are the Ouachita mountains, a series of unusual ridges running East to West stretching from Little Rock just into Oklahoma. Quoting: shovelbum Wait, Boston mountains are real mountains? I had no idea. I thought they were part of the plateau. You just blew my mind.
