A former who got the sack after his nude videos were leaked to his boss said he’s performed a “hard reset” on his life and has even started forecasting from his home.

Erick Adame, 40, took some “much needed” time-out from social media in November following his very public from NY1 in September 2022. The -nominated meteorologist had screenshots of him leaked performing a sex act in front of strangers on an adult camming site. It followed Erick’s last steamy session in December 2021 when someone posted a link, publicly naming him.

Now, it looks like the rain clouds are parting for the former weatherman who has seemingly sprung back to his feet since moving from the Big Apple to live with his friends in Syracuse, New York. He took to Instagram on Saturday to share an upbeat message with his 26,000 followers.

“I’m taking a step back, I’m able to exhale, which is freaking awesome, I’m getting some sleep and I do have a new part-time job here,” he said in a video while smiling and sipping a glass of red wine. Erick appeared hopeful about getting back into full-time employment after a string of part-time jobs – including working as USPS mailman and substitute teacher in the Bronx.

He left New York City after coming to the conclusion that it was too expensive to live there without the security of a full-time job. “It may not be on TV, it might be something else – we’re trying a little bit of everything – but a full-time job would be ideal,” he said.

His move to Syracuse – about 250 miles north of New York City – has been dubbed his “hard reset”. It’s a fresh start in a “new place, new everything, just focusing on me,” he added.

During his downtime, Erick has been working on a new app called 'Weather with Erick'. He’s back on camera after building a small weather studio in his apartment to give subscribers facts and forecasts about the weather.

Erick’s positive update on his mindset and career comes just months after he alerted his social media followers to his struggles and said he would be taking a break from social media. In November, he wrote: “In December 2021, I was captured nude on a public adult webcam site. It's 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. I was fired in September 2022 and haven't been able to find similar work, on or off camera.

“The toll this has taken on me mentally and financially is hard to even begin to describe. I'm still pushing forward and trying my hardest to stay positive but I need to take a break from social media.”
