1.)Windforce 8 or more produces wave heights of 6 m or above. The average expected days of windforce 8 or above in the atlantic is 500, 50 or 5 days a year. Guess what?

2.) Weather messages were an important element of the u-boat radio messages. And a u-boat crew was not retarded unable to"read" the actual weather. There was no "wow, we have here a unforeseeable heavy storm and we have to dive immediately" situation.
