No, thankfully that's not the case -- I'm not sure where you heard that, but it's a significant exaggeration, about 1000 times the estimated amount. In any case, any effect on the Earth resulting from the earthquake and ensuing tsunami has been vastly sensationalized in the news media and on the Internet. Events like this have happened many times in the past, but do not pose any grave threat to the planet.
This page explains it pretty well -- and bear in mind:

This motion will not bring any effect on weather and it will be noticeable and measurable only through extremely sophisticated tools, used by the experts.

No, as already noted, this event will not alter Earth's weather. While it's a terrible disaster in the regions affected, and resulted in tremendous loss of life, Earth is simply too massive for this to have affected it in any but the most miniscule, barely measurable way. It's also important to remember that weather is quite dynamic, and simply because some areas that have snow now but usually don't is
not indicative of the earthquake/tsunami causing them. There is no connection between earthquakes and weather.
