If you have lived in Minnesota or parts of the Midwest you will hear this expression among the locals as an expression of sensory overload, astonishment, or dismay that started with Within Scandinavian-American culture. As Wikipedia states: "Uff da is an all-purpose expression with a variety of nuances, and covering a variety of situations. The expression has lost its original connotation, and it is increasingly difficult to specify what it means now in America."
