Any thoughts? the oil temp was around 220 and rarely gets higher than that

i have 13,000 miles on my car and i get this smell once in a while, this morning it was particularly strong, a burning rubber/plastic smell. i was just sitting in traffic in the rain and it was quite disturbing, i turned the AC on just to drown it out a bit, i really wish i knew what it was
