Al Roker's weather forecasts on the Today Show have always proven to be a moment for not just enlightenment but the occasional levity, and his latest appearance was no different.
The 69-year-old was present during the Wednesday, October 18 installment of the show for his daily forecasts and while shedding light on the rising temperatures nationwide and was left stumped in the middle of his report.
Take a look below at the segment when Al was interrupted by his Today co-stars Craig Melvin, Hoda Kotb, and Savannah Guthrie, and how it left him a little dazed and (hilariously) confused…
What made the moment even funnier was the reaction of local New York meteorologist Maria LaRosa, who Al cut to after his report ended, and even she couldn't help cracking a smile.
Despite their frequent on-air teasing, Al and the rest of the Today Show line-up share a strong bond and are close friends both on and off the screen.
After taking some time off the show due to a series of health struggles in late 2022 and early 2023, Al spoke exclusively with HELLO! at the Hudson River Park Friends Luncheon this March about his relationship with his team.

"I got to see it firsthand after my illness, and it's just what we do. That's why I love working with these folks. It's a real blessing, the power of positive thoughts and prayer. I'm living proof of that."

At the time, fellow meteorologist and Third Hour of Today co-anchor Dylan Dreyer stepped in for Al, and she spoke with HELLO! in January about their love for Al and his value.

She spoke about the concern among the group when they learned the extent of Al's illness, having been hospitalized for blood clots which had traveled to his lungs.

She added: "When he started to get better, we were like, 'well, what does this mean? Is he gonna come back?'. Everyone kept saying that he would pull back and not work as much. I was like 'do you not know Al?'

He's such a trooper and he's better than ever. And now I get to sleep past 4 o'clock in the morning too which is an added bonus."
