At 4:45 PM the smell of smoke was strong near 34th and Milwaukee. Viewers have also contacted KCBD NewsChannel 11 from the 200 block of Milwaukee, the 5300 block of 19th and other areas in Northwest Lubbock.
Lubbock Fire Department dispatchers lost track of how many people called in to report smoke but it was "quite a few." As a precaution Lubbock fire dispatched engine companies to patrol their territories and double check that there is no fire in town.
The specific source of smoke remained a mystery as of 5 PM Sunday.
As the earth is roiling and shaking under our feet I feel we will see more of these type of reports from siesmically active areas around the world. As the earth is heaving and expanding, so any trapped gasses or gas pockets will find new fissures and routes to outgass their contents to the surface.
