Today: Al Roker Fans Alarmed By Live Broadcast, Is He Well?

The air quality for a large chunk of the United States has been pretty rough this week due to massive amounts of smoke. The poor air quality originated from the forest fires in Canada. New York, which is where The Today Show is filmed, just happens to be one of the states with poor air quality right now.

So, viewers of the show were a bit alarmed to see Al Roker standing outside on the plaza as he reported of the weather conditions. Viewers of The Today Show were pretty quick to take to social media to express their concerns and order the talk show bosses to bring Al Roker back inside.

Here is a clip of the broadcast with Al Roker standing outside:

And, here’s what some frustrated viewers had to say as they expressed concern for his well-being:

• “Please bring @alroker back inside. He’s been through so much with his health. Cringing as I watch him broadcasting from outside.”

Most were in agreement Al Roker could have reported the same weather information from the safety of being indoors.
