Astronomy Ireland has said to keep an eye out this week.
People have been urged to keep an eye on the night sky over the coming days, with the Aurora Borealis tipped to visible over Ireland this week.
Tuesday night (tomorrow) is the most likely for catching a glimpse of the northern lights, but there could be several more chances at seeing the natural phenomenon in the days following, reports the Irish Mirror.
Astronomy Ireland's David Moore says the north of the country may be slightly more likely to see the display, but it should be able to be seen from anywhere in the country.
Although, Mr. Moore warned star gazers that the lights may not look exactly as people might be imagining it too.
"You see the colours in photographs but to the naked eye unless it's a very strong display, you usually only see a greyish and whitish colour in the sky'', he told RTE.
"So people perhaps watching the 9pm news last night and looking at the beautiful greens and pinks, colour cameras are good at picking that up, but unless it's a major display its usually more of a whitish colour.
"This is not a huge storm that's expected, we never really know the intensity, so you might only be looking at a small glow on the northern horizon.
"We'll be seeing it from hundreds of kilometres away unless it moves very far south, which has happened in the past, so we can only hope for that, but look for a glow in the north, that's the tip.
"Normally we'd say a rural location would be good but unfortunately we have a full moon this week, so the moon will be quite bright.
"Even though we're predicting Tuesday night is the most likely time for the radiation of the sun to cause this aurora, there was actually a strong display last night and it could be tonight as well, or in fact over several nights.
"Don't just look tomorrow night, keep checking the sky."
Updates on the northern lights and visibility over Ireland will be available on the Astronomy Ireland website and social channels in the coming days.
