Synopsis

Everything is in place for the biggest invasion ever known in Europe, but one last crucial question remains: Will the weather be right on the day?

There are two opposing forecasts. American celebrity weatherman, Colonel Krick, predicts sunshine, while Dr James Stagg, chief meteorological officer for the Allied forces, forecasts a storm. As the world watches and waits, General Eisenhower, Allied Supreme Commander, must decide which of these bitter antagonists to trust. His decision will not only seal the fates of thousands of men, but could determine the outcome of the entire war.

This extraordinary, little-known true story explores the final days before the D-Day invasion.
