New York Salute

Typically done by raising your hand to someone while making a fist, with the exception of having only your middle finger extended. However, in some parts of the city, such as South Brooklyn or Staten Island, some of the old timers will give a New York Salute by putting the tips of their fingers to the bottom of their chin, and quickly flicking their hand forward an inch or two, always accompanied by an angry facial expression.
Hah, you see the faces of those tourists who were waving at us from the roof of that stupid sight-seeing bus when I gave them the good ‘ol New York Salute?? Yeah, that was Priceless.

Salute to the Snow God

Placing your windshield wipers up off of the windshield in preparation for a snow storm expected to make your vehicle difficult to wipe down. Having the wipers up prevents them from being iced in places and streamlines the process of scraping your car.
When Alice got home for the night, she checked the weather to see if she should perform a Salute to the Snow God to make scraping her car easier in the morning.

Or

Walking down the street in a snow storm in January, Peter all of the cars parker along the street with their wipers up in a Salute to the Snow God.
