The presidential inauguration ceremony will take place on what could be the coldest inauguration day since 1985.

It will be the coldest Inauguration Day since former President Ronald Reagan’s second inauguration in 1985, when the noon temperature was 7 degrees.

President-elect Donald Trump moved his inauguration ceremony inside for Monday due to an "Arctic blast." How cold will Florida be?

The second inauguration of Ronald Reagan on Jan. 20, 1985, was forced indoors due to intense cold. As USA TODAY noted that day, "The USA's 50th inauguration today moves indoors – a victim of bong-chilling temperatures that threatened 350,000 invited guests and parade watchers."

The worst weather for an inaugural came in March 1909, when 10 inches of snow forced William H. Taft to move indoors to be sworn in.

He is not the only president to move his inauguration indoors because of frigid conditions. It is expected to be the coldest Inauguration Day since 1985, when Ronald Reagan was sworn in for a second term in 7 degree weather.
