It's probably moisture getting into an electrical connection somewhere. Mine sometimes acts up in damp weather as well. Go through your wiring and make sure everything is tight and clean. If you're not up to that sort of project find a shop that specializes in automotive electrical repairs. It's a bit time consuming so be prepared for a significant bill, but if it solves the problem its worth it. Int he mean time, no more washing under the hood. As for rainy weather, not much you can do about that.
