President-elect Donald Trump announced that he has ordered his inauguration ceremony to move inside the U.S. Capitol rotunda on Monday, Jan. 20, due to dangerously cold weather

U.S. president-elect Donald Trump will take the oath of office from inside the Capitol Rotunda on Monday due to forecasts of intense cold weather.

President-elect Donald Trump said his inauguration on Monday will take place inside the U.S. Capitol rather than outdoors because of severe cold, the first time in 40 years that U.S. presidential inaugural ceremonies will be moved indoors.

The worst weather for an inaugural came in March 1909, when 10 inches of snow forced William H. Taft to move indoors to be sworn in.

Chilly temperatures pushed President-elect Donald Trump's second inauguration indoors, a rare but not unprecedented move.

President-elect Donald Trump is scheduled to be inaugurated Monday in Washington, D.C. The swearing-in ceremony for Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance has been moved inside the U.S. Capitol due to the freezing temperatures forecast in the nation’s capital.

Presidential inaugurations have been moved indoors several times due to bitter cold. It happened most recently in 1985 as Reagan began his second term.

The second inauguration of Ronald Reagan on Jan. 20, 1985, was forced indoors due to intense cold. As USA TODAY noted that day, "The USA's 50th inauguration today moves indoors – a victim of bone-chilling temperatures that threatened 350,000 invited guests and parade watchers."

The decision to move Monday’s event indoors marks the first time in 40 years that such a change has been made.
