NYC meteorologist fired over leaked explicit images leaves social media due to 'emotional and financial' toll

A meteorologist who was fired from his New York City news job last year after explicit images of him on a webcam were leaked to his work, said he's taking a break from social media.

"The toll this has taken on me mentally and financially is hard to even begin to describe," Adame wrote on X Friday, according to the New York Post. He deleted his account soon after the post. "I’m still pushing forward and trying my hardest to stay positive, but I need to take a break from social media."

Adame admitted it was "something I had done before but wasn’t caught in this way until then. Months later someone would send these images to my mom, my bf and my work."
