WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration swearing-in ceremony is likely going to move indoors due to a frigid weather forecast in the nation's capital Monday, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Inauguration day is often cold, but Monday looks to be especially so. The high is expected to be roughly 20 degrees, with a low of 6 degrees, and strong winds.

The last time the ceremony was held indoors was Ronald Reagan's second inauguration; the parade was also canceled that year.
