The Hydrogen sulfide is heavier than air, according to what I read.  I =

events.  It is strange though.

I don't know about the type of gas ... or IF it involved a gas.  I =
talked to the North Little Rock weather bureau and they told me that the =
wind was out of the south until about midnight(30) when it turned out of =
the north.  We usually get the weather from  over there (in Arkansas) =
the next day or two at the most..Actually my wind tried to turn to the =
north about midnight on Jan1. I never had a peak wind speed of over 9 =
MPH for the two days before and the north wind got here midnight on Jan =
1 and the wind was calm for at least four hours each day (31, and 1 to =
3) which might suggest a very light wind over there. There was a brief =
squall line passed through. It lasted all of about 30 minutes.... no =
significant wind.   Temperatures started around 30 degree F over there =
on the 28 and gradually moved up to low fifties by Jan 1.  We did get =
some rain ... about an inch. The streams are cold in that area and they =
catch a lot of trout. I would expect a higher than average oxygen =
content in streams and lakes at this time of year.

I pulled a 5th wheel through Guy area in November and it is all up hill =
from Little Rock to almost Branson and the streams are incised.  The =
News mentioned a dam and a stretch of water below this dam and to the =
area of Hartman, AR...I would expect this to be rather fast moving =
shallow water that didn't freeze. The lakes over here were frozen for =
over two weeks . There was one small fish kill in one lake when the ice =
cleared. That wouldn't explain the dead birds. Some of the birds I saw =
were red-winged black birds. This is a bird that likes to be around =
water but their food source would be berries and stuff away from water =
at this time of year.

The only thing I can say for sure.... there was a gentle upslope wind =
acting on the area at the time this happened. The general flow of =
surface water is west to east in this Guy area but there might be =
underground springs,
