Three Days in June: The Story of the D-Day Forecast

For a few tense days in June 1944, the success of the greatest military invasion the world had ever seen depended on weather readings taken by Maureen Sweeney at the remote #Blacksod weather station on Ireland’s west coast. “Three Days in June” includes a special interview with the now 96-year-old Maureen - providing a living link to a unique moment in history. Maureen’s data threw #Eisenhower’s meticulously planned invasion strategy into chaos, forcing him to mediate between opposing US & UK weather advisors and Generals and ultimately leaving him alone to make one of the most difficult decisions in the entire war.
