I saw this article at BoingBoing, and had to look it up.
From Wikipedia:
The Aroma of Tacoma, also known as the Tacoma Aroma, is a putrid and unpleasant odor associated with Tacoma, Washington, United States.[1] The smell has been described as similar to the odor of rotten eggs.[2] The odor is not noticeable throughout the city, but is rather concentrated in the Tacoma tideflats and is frequently smelled by motorists traveling that section of Interstate 5.[2]
The excessive rain thing is actually bullshit. US cities that get far more rain include NYC, Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans, Miami, Houston, and even relatively nearby Portland Or.
Amount of water yes. But come to Seattle and if you stay outside too long you’ll grow green algae and mold.
