Yes, bad weather is your friend. Makes it harder for the enemy to spot you visually and more difficult to pick you up with sonar (in rough seas). I was setting up an ambush on a lone merchant when all of a sudden, it went from blue skies to torrential downpours with 0 visibility. I surfaced, manned the deck gun and was firing blind with about 500yds distance between my boat and the enemy ship. Though my shells were hitting the vessel, we still never made visual contact. I got a gray "ship sunk" icon after the attack.
