TRUMP'S SWEARING-IN WILL MOVE INSIDE CAPITOL ROTUNDA BECAUSE OF INTENSE COLD WEATHER
WASHINGTON (AP) — Presidentelect Donald Trump will take the oath of office from inside the Capitol Rotunda on Monday due to forecasts of intense cold weather. The Republican president- elect says the weather forecast for Washington, D.C., with the windchill factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows. Trump says there's an Arctic blast sweeping the country and he doesn't want to see people hurt. The Rotunda is prepared as an alternative for each inauguration in the event of inclement weather. The swearingin was last moved indoors in 1985, when President Ronald Reagan began his second term. Monday’s forecast calls for the lowest inauguration day temperatures since that day.
