I'm not sure anyone has been saying it's world-ending here.  Just unusually cold weather.

However, I live in an area where we rarely get much snow, and it rarely stays freezing very long.  So, there are a lot of people here who aren't really used to driving in snow & ice, and those weather conditions tend to create a bit of chaos here.
