Cowan’s been involved in the “Storms of 2007” DVD—the proceeds of which go to the rebuilding efforts in tornado-devastated Greensburg, Kansas
Chad Cowan, a life-long weather enthusiast who lives here in Chicago, has storm-chased for years all across this country's Heartland. He and storm-chasing colleagues were in the field the night the devastating Greensburg, Kansas twister hit last May, all but wiping the community off the face of the earth.
Chad joins us at our Fermilab/WGN-TV Tornado and Severe Weather Seminars with some of the video of that horrific storm---video which is included in a DVD fellow storm-chasers have put together in an effort to aid relief efforts by the Red Cross and the town of Greensburg. Chad’s been actively promoting the sale of a series of storm DVDs which have raised more than $36,000 for tornado rebuilding and relief efforts since 2004. We're looking forward to Chad's appearance!
He offers this link to a YouTube sample of the 'Storms of 2007" video, which he had helped put together and market: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wdymawKR0o
Here’s the web site at which “The Storms of 2007” can be purchased. All funds raised from this DVD’s sales are dispatched to the Red Cross and to the city of Greensburg and directed toward the rebuilding process.
