The presidential inauguration ceremony will take place on what could be the coldest inauguration day since 1985.

It will be the coldest Inauguration Day since former President Ronald Reagan’s second inauguration in 1985, when the noon temperature was 7 degrees.

President-elect Donald Trump moved his inauguration ceremony inside for Monday due to an "Arctic blast." How cold will Florida be?

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.

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony is moving indoors to the Capitol rotunda because of a frigid weather forecast in the nation's capital Monday, the president-elect announced on social media Friday.

In his statement, Trump addressed two obsessions of the MAGA movement: Ronald Reagan and crowd sizes. The incoming president noted that Reagan was sworn in inside the Capitol in 1985, at that moment becoming the oldest president to be inaugurated. That record was eventually bested by Joe Biden in 2021. It will again be broken by Trump next week.

He is not the only president to move his inauguration indoors because of frigid conditions. It is expected to be the coldest Inauguration Day since 1985, when Ronald Reagan was sworn in for a second term in 7 degree weather.
