i used to get them a lot more frequently than i do now.
at first i thought my mind was playing tricks on me, but after sharing one with a friend i became a believer. mine have never been far into the future, usually just a few moments to a day or two tops.
a couple of "big" ones i recall...in high school i was preparing to go on a school trip and had a dream about being on the bus and the bus caught fire and there was smoke everywhere. it was a little odd cause i'd been on trips like that dozens of times and nothing like that happened so i had no reason to be worried about this one. went on the trip, the bus overheated and there was smoke everywhere (but no fire).
in college i was riding in the back of a car with some friends when we came to a stop sign. i got this...impression? i don't know how to explain it, it was like remembering something that had happened and you could see it in your head. but in this "memory" when we started moving forward again a car came out of nowhere and t-boned us. i was totally aware of what was going on around me, but it kinda freaked me out. we started moving and nothing happened. i just thought it was a freaky feeling i'd had. we stopped at another friend's house and i didn't give it another thought. on our way home as we pulled away from a stop sign, a car t-boned us. if i'd been driving, or shared my thoughts with the driver, i'd have doubted it--but since i wasn't and i didn't...
i've had a few others regarding cars as well, typically about accidents i'm involved in. though one time i "saw" a car getting hit by a van at a redlight i was stopped at, once we crossed the intersection we saw it happen in the rearview mirror.
typically though, it's about little things. thinking of someone and they call, "knowing" something during a game i'm playing, that sort of thing.
