How do you plow snow?

I see you are located in the Actual Midwest. Is that opposed too the Fake Midwest..........

gg

Yep. Somewhat logical (to me) is that the Midwest is in the middle of the western half of the country, rather than beginning at the western border of New York.

Right or wrong, in my case it's the southern Rockies.

Gee, many of you folks are pushing snow, we'd leave. View attachment 4425617

the city doesn't remove the snow bank there ? where I live they remove the snow banks every month.

When I was a kid in elementary school, we were taught that those were the "North Central States" (North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, and Kansas). You don't hear that name much these days.

Just for grins, I searched various maps describing the geographic regions of the US, and they were all over the page. My area (Maryland) is usually lumped in with Mid Atlantic, but also Northeast, and South.
One map I looked at has Pennsylvania and New York as Mid Atlantic. That can't be right!
For the record, I identify as Mid Atlantic without any real snow. Our historical annual snow is supposedly 20-24", but in the last 10 years it's been just under 12".

It's all relative. When I lived in the South I found that no matter where you were, everyone south of you were rednecks and everyone north of you were da** Yankees.

Off topic but I discovered your region is all relative. For the original surveying in Illinois was titled something like “Instructions For Surveying The Northwest Territories “. I think of the northwest being Washington and Oregon. Back in the early 1800’s Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin would have been the northwest

I knew what he meant when he said "real snow." Some northern people, what we used to call Eskimos, have like 40 different words for snow. We might have as many here in Buffalo's snow belt and ArlyA gets a lot more than we do. I laugh when the TV news talks about a blizzard hitting Cincinatti or K.C. It's all relative.
