Bad weather may make it hard to attack (let alone see), but it's also one of the best covers you can get. You can literally run into the escorts on the surface and they sometimes won't notice. RADAR will destroy this, though.

There have never been truer words. Keep your distance and be patient. Advice I should learn from... MAN THE DECK GUN!
