Stuides have shown there is a smell associated with the approach of rain, called petrichor. The reaction between very high humidity and certain plants in areas can contribute to the smell. Moisture, warmth and low air pressure are maximized as rain and thunderstorms approach and that can also enhance our sense of smell.
