This is part of Omaha Steel's plant. Somewhere deep inside is a 5 ton capacity electric arc furnace, along with 4 smaller induction furnaces. This place consumes some power....
Last night they were doing a pour, I think. When the furnaces are running you can smell the plant though the entire neighborhood. Tonight it was dark and less offensive smelling.

Worth the wait!
You used to be able to smell that thing for miles. I always thought someones tranny was going out!
Yeah... every now and then I catch a whiff of it and think someone is burning their clutch out.
