I think it comes down to not being sufficiently prepared.
Our country as a whole does not usually get that much snow, if in fact, any horrendous weather at all. Because of this, our government hasn't invested in salt/grit, or the trucks to clear the snow. That's why I think the country is in panic. Not to mention the media over hyping everything.
My fiance has had to take the last few days off work since we live in an area surrounded by hills and I'd rather not risk her nor the car (a little fiesta) on the iced up roads. I think that's more common sense than panic.
Anyways, I've not benefited from the weather, I work from home and therefore have no excuse for not turning up everyday :-(
