For the first time in his career, weather guru Al Roker overslept because his phone alarm didn't go off and he didn't have a backup. He missed hosting his show, Wake Up With Al, at 6 a.m. on the Weather Channel.
After 39 years, it happened. I overslept and missed a show. Missed #WUWA. But will be on time for @today
