You can access the external reserves in any weather (which was not possible in real life), but you can't directly load them into the tubes. You have to move them to the internal reserves first (the slots below the sub in the weapon management screen).
Like some other people I've made it a rule (self-imposed) not to load external torpedos in wind speeds above 6 & to load them with decks awash (setting the u-boat's depth to 6-7 meters). This self-imposed rule can cost some tonnage if I get nothing but rough seas during a patrol but I think that it adds some realism.
