Inauguration to be moved inside due to cold
The inauguration usually takes place on a platform in front of the US Capitol in Washington, D.C. But this year, the ceremony will be moved indoors due to a bitterly cold forecast.
"The weather forecast for Washington, D.C., with the windchill factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows. There is an Arctic blast sweeping the country. I don't want to see people hurt, or injured in any way,” Trump announced in a statement. "Therefore, I have ordered the Inauguration Address, in addition to prayers and other speeches, to be delivered in the United States Capitol Rotunda, as was used by Ronald Reagan in 1985, also because of very cold weather."
How can I watch the inauguration?
There are many ways to watch the inauguration. USA TODAY will have a livestream, and news networks will have programing throughout the day.
