Ginger was absent from her usual role of giving the weather forecast on GMA each morning.
Instead, Sam, who held the position before her, filled in on Thursday instead.
While many viewers were happy to see him back on their screens, others were concerned about Rob, who has filled in for Ginger in the past.
Aside from sometimes helping out during the week when Ginger can’t, Rob’s also the meteorologist for GMA’s weekend editions.

Though, he’s been absent from this role for a while, too, which has only added to his fans’ worries.
After seeing Sam give the forecast on the morning show on Thursday, one fan reached out to Rob and asked, “Where are you?”
Another blasted Good Morning America for not keeping its viewers updated on what’s happening with the 53-year-old.
“It is apparent that GMA/ABC have made some determination on Rob Marciano's future with them,” the user speculated.

They added: “Given he no longer backfills for Ginger or appear on GMA weekends.
“GMA/ABC need to pull up their socks and tell us viewers who are fans of Rob what has happened.”
As fans continue to speculate about whether or not Rob’s still working with Good Morning America, the meteorologist has yet to remove the show from his social media bios.
On Twitter, Rob still tells followers: “Good Morning America / ABC News Meteorologist (CBM). Dad, husband, science guy, sports fan, and outdoor enthusiast.”
On Instagram, his bio reads: “GMA/ABC News #Meteorologist, #Dad, #Sports Fan, #Weather Fan, #Outdoor Enthusiast, #Environmentalist”
Earlier this week, Rob posted on Instagram for Flag Day, but fans just used it as an opportunity to try to get some answers from him.
One commented: “When will you be back on GMA weekend ??”
Another wrote: “Miss you on GMA. Hope you are back soon.”
A third begged: “Please come back to GMA Weekends! You’re the only reason I get up on Saturdays.”
A fourth inquired: “Have you left GMA?”
In his Instagram Story on Wednesday afternoon, he did update fans to let them know he was busy driving toward an area with a “tornado watch” and doing so for ABC World News Tonight.
He shared a selfie from Madison, Wisconson, with gray, stormy clouds behind him as he posed by a body of water.
Rob has not yet commented publicly on his recent absence on GMA.
