The enemy only listens for you when you are submerged. Now, if a storm if you are out of viz range ... how do you know for sure ... well, if you cannot see them, then they cannot see you ... also you will still be getting random hydrophone contacts due to huge swells ... viz is going to be under 1,000M. So, if you hold an escort at long or medium range, he/she is not going to see you.

Then, I say go to flank. Maximum displacement in minimum time.

By the way, I also think torpedos should be set to run a couple of meters deeper in storms to avoid broaching and going off track, but that is just speculation, I have no serious research behind that.
