My home city in China is normally Cold, it's known for the Winter Light Festival.

Yes, those sculptures are made from blocks of ice.
But, here is the link for your story.
In some areas - northeastern China, eastern Inner Mongolia, and north part of far-western Xinjiang province - the low has hit -40 degrees C (-40 degrees F), the administration said. The state-run, English-language China Daily reported Friday that about 1,000 ships were stuck in ice in Laizhou Bay in eastern China's Bohai Sea.

Another picture of a tourist resort for skiing in my home city.

An average winter day, their not wearing face mask to warm the air as you breath, so it's not to cold, maybe -5 degrees.

Well, with some weather cycles on the order of 10's of thousands of years, your 37 years isn't even worth considering. There are decadal oscillations, of which you have experienced a few. But extremes occur in much larger cycles.

Yes, it's cold in most of China, my city of Harbin, China is famed as the Ice City, Harbin has long cold winters and short cool summers. The snow season can last as long as half a year.
January is the coldest with the lowest temperature dropping to -38 F, while it is just 68 F on average in summer.

And here is the Harbin Zoo with our Siberian Tigers. It pains my Hear to think they are so cold this year.

Warm thoughts and well wishes for your parents. Please remind them the importance of drinking extra water to remain hydrated. Also hanging blankets to keep the drafts down and wear many layers. I hope to hear good news of a warming trend soon.

Dad was soaking his feet in hot water as mother was treating his arthritic shoulder with Acupuncture.
It is a new day there, the sun is shining and Mother wants to take a dip in the river when they get a open area for the ice swimmer made.

The point he is trying to make is that this isn't unusual for this time of the year in China. The same with the fires in Australia, anyone would think that Australia has never had a bushfire or extreme heat in Summer before. Only a few years back, we would go weeks on end with temps about 35 degrees. Whats happening now is nothing.
