intermittant starting problems - when it rains?

I have an '89 900 conv turbo that has starting problems. I've taken it to my local indy but so goes the old adage "... if it's not broke, I can't fix it". Every once in awhile, when I go out to start it, it'll crank over but not fire. When it does start, everything is fine. Today in southern Indiana it's a rainy kind of day and the Saab is stuck in a local golfing store's parking lot - not starting. I'm going to wait awhile before going back over, but odds are it'll start and everything will be fine for a couple of weeks. It does seen that this problem is co-existing with moist weather? Can some water be getting in the vent opening on the hood and settling somewhere? I was at first suspecting a fuel pump or relay but am now having my doubts. Anyone care to take a Sunday afternoon crack at this? Thanks in advance.
