Rokerthon is back! TODAY announced this morning that Al Roker will visit college campuses across America to help students break Guinness World Records. "Rokerthon 3: Storming Into The Madness" will air this March on NBC's TODAY.

Rokerthon debuted November 2014 when Roker broke the Guinness World Record for the longest uninterrupted weather broadcast, reporting live for a remarkable 34 hours. "Rokerthon 2, Taking America By Storm" aired October 2015 and he set the Guinness World Record for the Fastest Time to Report A Weather Forecast from all 50 US States and the District of Columbia.
