The planning team responsible for the invasion of Normandy had to consider the weather, the moon and tides when assigning a date for D-Day. Air operations required clear skies and a full moon for good visibility. Naval operations required low winds and calm seas to safely transport troops ashore. Ground troops needed to land at low tide, when German beach obstacles were exposed and easier to deal with.

D-Day required the best combination of these factors. Military planners relied on information from meteorologists and other specialists, who advised that D-Day should fall somewhere between 5 and 7 June 1944. D-Day was set for 5 June, but Supreme Commander General Dwight D Eisenhower knew that the weather could be critical in determining whether the invasion went off as planned.

How did the relationship between britain and her colonies change during the colonial era?

The colonies' relationship was altered by increased interaction and a lack of care and representation from Britain.

<h3>How did the colonial era affect the relationship between Britain and her colonies?</h3>

To address their financial problems, the British used taxes on the colonies. However, because they were not represented in Parliament, the colonies utilized non-importation pacts to persuade Britain to remove the laws. Merchants signed non-importation agreements pledging not to purchase goods from England. Britain has gotten progressively worse over time at maintaining the happiness of its colonies. By the end, colonists had lost any sense of solidarity with Britain, their motherland. Lack of representation and concern from Britain led to the decline in British colonial ties in the late 1700s.
