The article is an attempt to analyse the synoptic situation during the major campaigns of the twentieth century, based on the reconstruction of digital weather maps. The analysis presented allows us to determine the weight of the impact of weather conditions on military operations during World War iiin the key moments. Thanks to the development of the scientific discipline that is meteorology and skillful use of information from the measured data, we can assess its importance in the making of key decisions in the arena of military action and its impact on the fate of exemplary campaigns.
