Temperatures were from 11 to 17 degrees Celsius below normal across the US east of the Rocky Mountains, with only southern Florida untouched by the arctic blast.
"That degree of cold will be with us until tomorrow," National Weather Service meteorologist Brian Hurley said.
"Tuesday morning, we're looking at temperatures with very high probability of record lows."
Along Alabama's Gulf Coast, the temperature in the city of Mobile could hit a low of -9C overnight.
