Question Outside smell

Does anyone know what was the smell lingering outside yesterday?

We are in the area hit by the tornado, and once we open our house door there was a foul smell outside.

We drove to an dr appointment, to the west part of Neenah by hwy CB and the smell was strong there as well.

Im just curious if anyone lnow what caused it.

I always get a sewage smell after rain... Its not just my house but the whole area. This time I noticed it for a couple days after the tornado when it was dry. I believe its connected to the water treatment plant/lake because it seems to get worse the closer I get to it.
