Y'all should move to East Tennessee, we go through this twice a month(at
least it seems like it). The way I understand it, it is that in between
state that gets you. Half dry and half wet, screws with the contacts or
something. Connections are wet then dry, I reckon it is the moisture that
is evaporating, but the contacts are going from wet to dry to wet to dry
states constantly during this time. Almost all of our problems come about
two or three days after it quits raining.
