There has been so much arctic air bottled up in Canada for the past couple of weeks. So, it is no surprise to see the model guidance latching on to bringing that cold stuff down once again. The first surge is now occuring across the Plains down into the entire state of TX.
This major brunt of this current arctic surge will miss the SE U.S. as the upper level southwesterly flow will shunt the coldest of the air away from the SE U.S. up through the TN and Ohio Valley and later into the Northeast U.S. later this week.
This next arctic surge may penetrate deep into the SE U.S. as the trajectory according to the Euro looks to drive the polar jet once again straight from northwest to southeast, bringing that arctic air right into the region. This was the pattern we had for December and most of January.
Just have to pay attention to the models to see if they continue this trend for late next week.

NEVER, EVER SAY NEVER in the tropics and weather in general, and most importantly, with life itself!!
