Al Roker’s wife, Deborah Roberts, threw him a surprise 70th birthday party at City Winery in New York City Tuesday night.

The “Today” show weatherman posted pictures from the bash –– which included a performance from Earth, Wind & Fire and appearances from several broadcast personalities.

“Still processing the early #surpriseparty @debrobertsabc threw for me celebrating my 70th birthday with family and friends,” Roker captioned a carousel of 20 photos on Instagram Wednesday.

He added, “I’m much more comfortable being the one giving the party than being on the receiving end. This was overwhelmingly amazing and it’s still sinking in.”

Roker shared several sweet snaps of him and Roberts posing with all three of his kids.

His fellow “Today” show co-hosts Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb and Craig Melvin were all present for the special evening, as well as “CBS Mornings” co-host Gayle King and “Good Morning America” co-anchor Robin Roberts.

Deborah, 63, added various personal touches to her husband’s party –– including dozens of prop versions of his viral blue glasses, balloons, custom Krispy Kreme doughnuts and old photos of Roker lined along the walls.

At one point, Guthrie was photographed hugging Roker while smiling and wearing a pair of the blue glasses.

Roberts kept the surprises coming by having Earth, Wind & Fire take the stage stage.

Leila posted a sweet black-and-white video of her parents holding each other close, sharing a kiss and dancing to one of the band’s hit songs.

Roker looked dapper in a light purple button-up with a gray plaid blazer over it, while Deborah dazzled in a sleeveless turtleneck white sparkly dress.

“Let the birthday countdown begin for @alroker We love and appreciate you so much that we simply had to begin celebrating early!! Let’s keep dancing into the next week and into your new decade,” Deborah captioned her Instagram post Tuesday.

Roker turns 70 on Aug. 20.

His birthday party came just one day after Kotb celebrated her 60th birthday with a celebration on Monday’s episode of “Today With Hoda and Jenna.”
