Normal Weather Phenomenon or Something Else?

I tried to get input on this in another thread, with no luck. Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone have an explanation? This unusual experience is part of the reason I went looking on the web and found ATS.

I live near a major airport hub and our area is experiencing a severe drought - almost no rain for two weeks now and a 13 inch rain fall deficit.

A week or so ago I went outside in the middle of the afternoon (1 or 2 o'clock), the temperature was about 96 degrees, no clouds in the sky except contrails or chemtrails, whichever you prefer.

I was shocked and confused to smell a very strong odor of ozone, or whatever that smell is right after a good rain, and the air felt damp. I went inside and asked my husband to come and see if he could smell it and feel it too or if it was just my imagination. He did and was just as perplexed as I was. He is definitely a scientifically minded skeptic (loves to debunk me at least!) but he had no explanation. Neither do I.

Any guesses?
