SynopsisThe year is 1944 and Frankie Brown is shocked, literally, while listening to the weather on the radio. Soon he's predicting the weather for friends and the Boston Red Sox. When the Allied Army finds out, General Dwight D. Eisenhower flies the Weather Boy and his family to England to prepare for a secret invasion of France ? D-Day. Success hinges on good weather and ten-year-old Frankie must survive army camp life, a parachute jump, and the glare of Winston Churchill to find a small gap in a great storm ? critical for the landing on the beaches of Normandy. As Frankie tries to save the army, he must also save his own father who has parachuted behind enemy lines and, in the process, he discovers the true measure of a hero.
