Al Roker has a message for those worried he's too old for live hurricane reports: 'Screw you'

Al Rokerhears you, and Al Roker wants you to know that he’s doing just fine.

And as he did, observers took to Twitter to ask him to, well,not.

Other onlookers worried about the prostate cancer survivor’s age and general wellbeing.

“Al Roker is almost 70 years old, why is this necessary?

“tweeted Huffington Post reporter Phil Lewis.

Roker, meanwhile, is immune to the internet’s pleas for his safety.

“I volunteered to come out here,“he told Jonathan Capehart on MSNBC’sThe Sunday Show.

“I’ve done this for 40 years.

Our crews, we all confirm we’re safe.”

And for those saying he’s too old to do it?

“Screw you,” he joked.

“These young punks.

I will come after them.

I will drop them like a bag of dirt.”

Hurricane Ida made landfall at 1 p.m.
