If there’s one thing we can count on, it’s that Sam Champion is a man of many talents and adventures. The beloved meteorologist, who has proven time and again that he’s a true jetsetter, raced to the Good Morning America set on Wednesday, March 6, to step in for one of the show's missing co-hosts. It’s moments like these that remind us why audiences adore him so much.
At 62, Sam only works part-time with the show, but his presence is nothing short of iconic. From 2006 to 2013, he served as a full-time meteorologist on GMA before venturing over to The Weather Channel. But even his stint there only lasted three years before he found himself back at ABC, where fans have been eagerly tuning in to his segments ever since. His return to the show feels like a homecoming, and it’s been welcomed with open arms by viewers.
On his way to the GMA studio, Sam hosted an Instagram Live session with his followers, where he discussed the rain and storms making their way across the East Coast this week. In the comments section of the video, he hinted that he’ll soon be returning to his usual spot on local Eyewitness News, sparking excitement among his fans.

Sam Champion Fills In for Ginger Zee and More
Sam was called in last week to fill in for Ginger Zee, who was out on assignment. On March 1, Sam announced his plans to head to Miami following his appearance on GMA that day. Sharing a glimpse into his personal life, he told his Instagram followers, “Right after this, I’m going to jump on an airplane and fly home to my husband and swim in the ocean if everything is going perfectly before dinner. That’s the plan.”
Ginger Zee, 43, has since returned to the show. However, Robin Roberts announced that she would be hitting the road for several assignments across the country this week. “Good morning,” Robin, 63, shared on Tuesday, March 5. “We are ready to hit the road again.”
“Going to leave a little bit early, so we can get down to Iowa to talk to Caitlin Clark,” she continued. Robin also plans to head to Los Angeles for an “exclusive interview,” although she didn’t reveal who she would be speaking with. Given the upcoming Oscars on Sunday, March 10, it’s likely she’ll be interviewing a nominated actor or actress.
