2. Is there any way to see what exact traffic/pattern triggered the
Snort Alert? I know how to find the rule description that the
potentially harmful traffic matched, but interested to see the exact
traffic log that triggered the alert. I'd like to have more information
before marking it as a false positive for my environment and start
ignoring or disable some rules.

Snort saves the packets that triggered the alert in pcap format. You can download these from pfSense and view them with Wireshark.

From Services > Snort > Alerts tab by Save or Remove Logs, click Download.
