With the marvelous threat of snow stirring all those, young and old, in the vicinity of Stafford County, all are willing to partake in whatever is needed to receive the snowstorm Stafford has been waiting for. There are many ritual that can be performed to encourage snowfall. Follow any of these top 11 rituals and embrace your inner child to (hopefully) wake up to see the world covered in a breathtaking sheet of snow.

1.Inside-out and backwards pajamas.

Legend say that is this one of the best ways to get it to snow. It doesn’t matter your age, try it! After all, snow is for everybody.

2. Put a spoon under your pillow.

It doesn’t matter what type of spoon you use, so go as crazy as you’d like. Bonus points if the spoon is frozen!

3. Snow dance it out.

Crank out your best moves and dance like no school depends on it (because it does!). If you are a professional dancer get some fellow dancers and an ice pack together! Do the same dance moves across the floor and toss the ice pack to the next person in line after you have gone once. If the person doesn’t catch the ice pack there won’t be snow, but if they do catch it, there will be snow!

4. Place a white crayon in the freezer.

Place a white crayon in your freezer and once it is frozen sit it under your pillow before you go to bed. It has to be a white crayon, because, in reality, the best snow is white.

5. Place ice cubes on the porch.

With this one go as crazy as you’d like. One; ten; a million; the more the merrier. Besides, if it doesn’t actually bring snow maybe Stafford County will see the ice and actually think there is inclement weather!

6. Flush ice cubes down the toilet.

The ice cannot be crushed! Place one ice cube for every inch of snow there needs to be. However, be careful to not freeze your pipes!

7. Wear your underwear inside out.

While nobody really knows why people do this or if it works, every bit counts.

8. Put your socks in the freezer at night.

Pick your best lucky snow socks and place them in the freezer over night. Bonus points if you wear them the next day, but they may be a little chilly.

9. Run around the dining table five times before bed.

When in doubt, any table works. Watch out for your toes!

10. Brush your teeth with the opposite hand.

It is actually pretty hard, so only those dedicated enough should attempt this.

11. Eat ice cream the night before.

While this may just be a scheme to eat ice cream before bed, it is still worth a try!
