Tornado Chaser

Windswept Chase Tours is owned and operated by Dean Cosgrove. Dean is one of only a handful of full-time, professional storm chasers in the world. He has been chasing and photographing severe storms since he was a teen growing up in Tornado Alley where he was born and has always lived. He has seen and photographed storms during every month of the year. Dean's video has been featured on: The Weather Channel, CNN, The Discovery Channel and many more .Dean's passion for severe weather and nature translates into an accumulated knowledge and wisdom about storm systems that goes far beyond numbers forecasting.After working with a large chase tour company, Tempest Tours, for several years, Dean, at the request of several chasers who wanted to learn more with individual instruction, started Windswept Chase Tours. Private chasing, with its flexibility, choice and guest control, has continued to grow in popularity. Dean has many repeat clients who come back year after year to chase and continue to learn more about the amazing weather of Tornado Alley.The following is from one guest who has taken a number of private chase tours with Dean: We keep coming back for more! Three years of private tours with you and I've learned more about forecasting and severe storms than I ever dreamed possible. It's impossible to express my appreciation for all you've taught me. And, the flexibility of the private chase tours makes all the difference in the world to me. I love having the opportunity to choose our restaurants and motels and taking advantage of all of your local knowledge of all of chase country. You know where everything is, can read the sky as only someone who has grown up in that end of the world can, and your passion is contagious. I only wish that I could spend more time out there with you! What an incredible experience. I can't recommend it highly enough to anyone who might be considering it.
