Meth lab?
Any emergency service should do. They'll refer it to another if it's not on their watch. I hope you find out what it is and report back to us. Sounds terrible. Stay safe, fren.
Your neighbor is probably burning trash
Call fire department
Is there an incinerator in your county?
not that I could find online...one about 10 miles away
do you live close to traintracks?
yea kinda, maybe 1-2 miles away
OK, this is weird… I was smelling that while walking my dog tonight. I’m in the middle of the country.

Funny you should mention this. A family member in south Louisiana, near the Mississippi River said the same thing.

so this may be the culprit. They are calling it the "Last Resort" fire..the plastic smell is still unexplained to me.
