The Jan. 20 inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump has been moved indoors due to extreme cold weather.

The event was scheduled to be held on the steps of the U.S. Capitol as is tradition. But it is forecasted to be 25 degrees Fahrenheit in Washington that day as Arctic winds hits the East Coast.
