Probably a short, due to moisture, in the high voltage part of the ignition system. Next time, try drying the distributor cap and associatined wires with a hair dryer. Still won't? Dry the coil wire and the ignition coil "face". Make sure the coil wire is not laying against metal. Still won't? I hate to say this but, pull the distributor cap and dry the inside of it. If that works, you might apply a thin bead of silicon sealer around its perimeter when you reinstall it to make it resist moisture penetration. Seal it up when the humidity is low. You don't want to seal moisture inside it to condense during the next cool spell.
