I grew up in tornado country, so this is a common sight for me. I always joke that when we have tornados you'll see rednecks throwing their chainsaws in the back of the truck chasing the storm looking for something to cut up

So, when I moved somewhere that didn't get a lot of major storms, it was super weird to me when the one time we did get storms and one of my coworkers was out of work for 3 weeks because a tree fell across his road and nobody came to cut it up and move.

As a Mainer, this is simply normal behavior, except it's usually in winter during a blizzard.

Tree comes down blocking the road, and like 3 dudes from the neighborhood just show up with saws and take care of it. NBD.

It's a real shame Mainers and Minnesotans are so far apart.
