Starting issues in the rain

Hi all,

I just picked up my first FD and was in love as soon as I took the test drive! It made a 22.5 hour trip home with no problems but drinking lots of gas LOL. I guess I can blame the gt42r for that though

Now to the weird issue. I tryed starting the car in the rain on Friday and the car wouldn't even crank! All the lights, alarm...all electrical seem to be working from inside the car. I tryed jumping the car but still no crank whatsoever. Today it's 67 degrees and sunny and figured I try starting the car. The car came on without a problem. It started very quickly as a matter of fact. Can anybody guess what it could possibly be?
