Default heavy rain fog and cloud coverage - "historically correct" procedure?

Hi!

I'm just wondering what a U-Boat captain would have done in heavy fog and bad weather.

My guess is that during night they would submerge to 30 meters and run at 3 knots or so until dawn, then resurface and recharge batteries.

Because in heavy fog and pitch black its gonna be a bit difficult to evade a vessel thats running straight at you 50 meters from your bow...

Anyone want to share some knowledge on this issue with me?

cheers!
