On Monday morning, Al was around to handle the weather report for the day just about nine minutes into the show.

He discussed some of the showers that were heading into the area after Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie threw it over to him.

Later in the show, he was there in the Today show plaza as well.

But when it came time for all the hosts to get together on the couch where they usually report from, Craig Melvin said Al was out on assignment.

It’s not clear what kind of assignment Al was working on, but he had something to take care of — and will likely return in the next day or so.

Dylan Dreyer was also absent, with Vicky Nguyen taking her place.

‘LOVE IS IN THE AIR’

Meanwhile, Al and wife Deborah Roberts have shared sweet photos from Robin Robert’s wedding to her long-time partner.

The Good Morning America anchor and Amber Laign tied the knot in a lavish ceremony on Friday.

Al and Deborah went to the wedding and seemed to be all smiles as they celebrated their long-time friends.

The ABC news reporter took to her Instagram profile on Sunday to share snaps from the beautiful event.

In the first image, the journalist posed with her weatherman husband as they showed off their formal garb for the evening.

Deborah wore a multi-colored dress with a silver necklace and Al sported a tweed suit with a white button-down shirt.

The couple smiled brightly as they embraced on the dance floor.

In a second picture, Deborah posed with the brides Robin, 62, and Amber, 48, as they sat at the reception table surrounded by other friends.

The GMA star sported a white bridal gown with a sparkly diamond high neckline.

Her spouse wore a white gown with a taffeta skirt.

The group laughed together in a fun moment caught on camera.

Al and his wife posed for several other photos with friends and included one special shot of Robin and Amber during their first dance.

The brides held hands and shared a loving look at one another as they moved across the dance floor.

Deborah captioned her post: “Love is in the air. What a beautiful celebration of @robinrobertsgma and @amberlaign1 as they made it official. Best wishes to the happy couple.”

GO AL!

Al also shared some exciting news away from his hosting duties.

The US daytime TV co-host had his sexiness to thank for his newest achievement.

Al was revealed to be one of the contestants for People’s “Sexiest Grampa Alive” for the news outlet’s popular Sexiest Man Alive issue.

On September 5, fans could begin voting for their favorite men in pop culture including “Sexiest TV Star,” “Sexiest Athlete,” “Sexiest TikTok Star,” “Sexiest Morning Show Host,” and more.

The Today host is up against Pierce Brosnan, 70, Kurt Russell, 72, and Michael Douglas, 78.

Al is the grandfather to 2-month-old Sky Clara – whom his daughter, Courtney, 36, gave birth to over the summer.
