Not like a dream, more like a thought. Don't think im crazy or anything, but I have done it hundreds of times. It started to happen to me around age 11 or 12.
I can't tell you how many times I have thought of something right out of nowhere (for example, a specific part on an episode of a tv show), and the next day/night i watch what I saw the day or or so before.
It was weird when it started happening, but now i'm so used to it i usually just ignore it, because usually if I tell someone, what I saw doesn't come true, and then I look like a total lier. So I just keep it to myself. You probably think i'm a lier anyways, lol, but oh well, can't prove it, I never know when it's gonna happen, or with what.
But to answer your question (in my perspective). It's more of a thought, nothing like on Final Destination where when it happens to them it's like there right there. Just basically a thought that pops into your head for no apparent reason, and you think nothing of it at the time, until it happens a day or so later.
