I was at a cottage in the woods by a lake. It felt like somewhere in the North, perhaps BC. I was outside when a storm approached and it began to rain. I saw a bright light shining thru the trees. I walked towards it and saw that it was an extremely bright fire, like a magnesium fire. It was setting the woods on fire even though they were wet from the rain. I was amazed at the brightness of the source of the fire. (Not amazed enough to become lucid, however). I began scooping up wet dirt to throw on the fire but it wouldn't go out. I wasn't panicked or threatened by the fire, just curious at why it wouldn't go out.
