There is water getting into the ignition system somehow. Remove the distributor cap and see if there is any condensation inside. Wipe it clean and dry. There may be a crack in it.
Another possibility is wet ignition wires. Have they been changed in the last 10 years? ;-) If they are cracked, moisture can get into them and short them out.
Also check that the connections on the ignition coil (above the radiator) are dry and the rubber covers are intact.
