Donald Trump's second inauguration will be indoors due to extreme cold, with D.C. temperatures expected to dip under 20 degrees—marking the coldest Inauguration since 1985.
Presidents have historically modified their inauguration plans due to cold weather; in 1985, Ronald Reagan's second term began indoors with a cancelled parade, mirroring Trump's approach.
Trump urged attendees to dress warmly for the inauguration, emphasizing safety and encouraging people to watch the event on TV if they prefer.
Historic incidents show that previous presidents like Taft and Kennedy faced similar weather challenges, with Taft's 1909 inauguration held inside and a large parade still occurring despite snow.
