Albert Lincoln Roker Jr.(born August 20, 1954) is an American weather forecaster, journalist, television personality, actor, and author. He is the current weather anchor on NBC's Today. Roker also serves as co-host on 3rd Hour Today, although the latter was not officially announced by NBC News. He has an inactive American Meteorological Society Television Seal #238.

Roker is related to the late actress Roxie Roker, who played Helen Willis on the sitcom The Jeffersons and was the mother of rock musician Lenny Kravitz. Al Roker and Kravitz's grandfathers were cousins, which in turn makes Al Roker and Kravitz second cousins, as they share the same great, great grandparents

Roker worked as a weather anchor for CBS affiliate WHEN-TV (now WTVH) in Syracuse, New York from 1974 until 1976, while he was enrolled at SUNY Oswego. During his time in Oswego, he also DJ'd at the campus radio station, WNYO. Following the completion of his studies, Roker moved to Washington, D.C. and took a weathercasting position at independent station WTTG, then owned by Metromedia, remaining there for much of the next two years.
