Ireland is around the same latitude as parts of Canada (around 52° to 54° North). It usually has mild winters for its given latitude (I doubt the Canadians ever worry about a ‘snow blizzards’ and an inch or two of accumulation).
This is probably what Boston would call a ‘mild dusting.’
LOL

Boston literally shuts down with 1/2” of snow. :D
The mild winters are usually attributed to the Gulf Stream.
