You may just be really sensitive.  I used to be able to feel
something from the overhead wires, wiring inside the walls
of my house, etc.  So you would experience that anywhere
where a meter or wires are present (and it seems like you
could test that theory easily enough by finding some other
meters and overhead wires and see what you feel).  

Seattle City light is not using Smart Meters.  Puget
Sound Energy has battery-powered "smart meters" on the
natural gas, but these don't seem very bothersome.
