Astronomy Ireland has said thatthere is a strong chance people in Ireland will catch a rare glimpse of the Northern Lights tonight. <\/p>\n
The spectacular display of multi-coloured solar waves were expected to light up the dark sky yesterday but dense cloud led to poor visibility. <\/p>\n
Astronomy Ireland's David Mooresays there's a 90% chance people will tonight see the aurora. <\/p>\n
He said: \"If we get a great display of the aurora, the whole entire country will see it.\" <\/p>\n
Mr Moore said: \" If it's a weak display out over the North Atlantic then northern counties are favoured. But those weak displays wouldn't be that spectacular.\" <\/p>\n
He said that: \"the next few years are great for aurora because we're just after sun-spot maximum and that's when the aurora peaks for several years after that.\" <\/p>\n
