Temperatures are expected to be up slightly today, despite the severe gales and blustery showers in the north.
However, dry spells elsewhere are expected to create good conditions for many residents in Scotland and Northern Ireland to be able to see the Northern Lights.
According to reports, the Met Office reckons it may be possible to spy the Aurora Borealis due to a solar geomagnetic storm.
That means a powerful space storm is flaring up on the surface of the sun – and experts predict this weekend the Lights will shine brighter than usual.

It is thought the display may be most visible between 3pm on Saturday afternoon and 9pm on Saturday night.
However, the BBC reports Northern Ireland could also get a good view from around the same time in the afternoon until Sunday morning.
The BBC believes the best views of the phenomenon are likely to be in the Scottish Highlands, or over in the east in Dundee or Aberdeen – both places are forecast to enjoy clear skies.
Due to its relative closeness to the North Pole, Scotland is said to be the best place to observe the sight in the UK, although the Lights have been eyed on previous occasions as far south as Cornwall and Kent.

However, despite milder conditions on Saturday, Sunday is likely to see a return to more wintry weather.
It is expected to be dry and bright across many parts of England and Wales but overcast and windy in both Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Persistent overnight rain in northern and western Scotland is expected to move south, too.
Monday is predicted to be largely dry and bright.
