Predicting the future on New Year's Eve

Another Finnish Tradition

 Melting lead/tin in the fireplace

Pouring hot metal into a bucket of snow.
   

Steam from the hot lead.

The metal can be removed in just a few seconds.
   
   

 Jim Kurtti can now tell Maija Stadius' fortune.

 The whole process is lots of fun to predict the future from the bumps on the lead/tin.
