The weather was horrible during this event. They wanted to do it during a full moon so the tide wasn't too low. However, meteorologists were predicting horrible weather on the 4th so, Eisenhower postponed D-Day for 24 hours. The weather made this event hard to plan and execute. However, supposedly, the weather was good on the actual day of the event. There was sunny skies, and some wind. The water was reported to be 59 degrees.

Answer 30

Which allowed for the troops to not be slow in the muddy beaches, allowed the troops to have better visibility, however that also meant that the Germans also had better visibility.

Answer 31

The historical impact of this event was very great. This battle was the battle to let the allies win the war. IF the allies hadn't won, we probably would have lost the war.
