But that would also mean the defenders would be more prepared for the attack; apparently they were on low alert on June 6th due to the weather, with many commanders away, which severely hampered their counterattacks, especially in the hours of darkness, which thanks to TacAir were the most important.Weather on the day had an impact on Allied TacAir with some dodgy visibility at low level over the invasion area and then there was the bad weather later on which also had an effect on both the logistics build up and air ops in North Western France. If weather had been perfect with from June 6 onwards allowing the allies to land much more equipment and material onto the beaches it may well accelerate the break-out and subsequent ops.
