I think it's pretty wide-spread in Northern American English, all across western NY, the Lake Erie coast, and into Michigan.  I don't have a copy of the Dictionary of American Regional English (DARE), but I suspect it would define the distribution pretty well.

from Colorado in high school in Florida, whose speech was reasonably
Southern except for her referring to a group--even of all girls--as "You
