Eye view screen went black

I had just got between the to wrecks entering Scapa Flow from the east Sept 13, 1939, 2208. I put up my observation scope to check the positions of the ships and nothing but black. I raised the attack scope and the same thing. So I pressed F12 and I got the same thing, a black screen. I couldn't see anything cause it was so black. Any ideas?

EDIT: Well, I restarted the computer and the game and I heard thunder and saw a bird fly across the screen, so I guess I am in a storm, with complete overcast blocking out the night sky. Now how in the world am I going to attack any ship inside the harbour when I can't see a damned thing?

Perhaps I should stop engines and settle on the floor of the harbour and wait until morning???

How come TGW took the authority to report weather conditions away from the Navigator and gave it to the Watch Officer???
