Depends on the captain and the target, some like Prien, would attack even during storms. The biggest problem with attacking during a storm was accurate shooting. It was hard to keep the boat heading where you want and torpedoes could "broach" (i.e. be pushed to the surface by waves) causing them to deviate from their course.
