IF YOU SMELL ROTTEN EGGS, IT’S THE SALTON SEA

As if high temperatures weren’t bad enough, depending on winds, you may smell the stench of rotten eggs for the next few days. The smell is coming from the Salton Sea, where elevated levels of hydrogen sulfide have developed. It’s caused by decaying organic matter. Its presence may be felt on and off through Thursday, “Hot weather enhances the process,” according to the South Coast Air Quality Management District.
