    Then why do met eireann have a weather warning on their site for sleet and snow showers? Not too many people reside in Ireland 300m above asl.

    Freezing level is the height of the 0 °C isotherm, not the snowline. It is important for aviation in that it marks the height at which airframe icing can occur.

    Snow can still fall below this level.

    These two little lows are heading our way might increase shower potential later you can see one swirling out to our west here
