In my experience, if your vehicle is running roughly after a rain, the problem most likely lies with moisture getting into your distributor cap. This is the cap that all of your spark plug wires run into (either 4,6, or 8, depending on how many cylinders your vehicle has). You didn't mention the age of your vehicle, but it would be unusual to see this on a newer vehicle. When the motor is good and dry, remove the distributor cap and ensure that it is totally dry and the motor is running fine. Once you've done this, replace the cap and spray the exterior of the cap liberally with a silicone spray sealant. Make sure and cover all of the top and sides. This should provide a watertight seal and prevent any moisture from entering the cap. Hope this helps.

Try this, once you have it running again take an old spray bottle and mix up a solution of salt and water then spray the wires with this solution at night with the hood open and engine running. Doing this in the dark will show you how bad the wires really are by giving off quite a light show. Good spark plug wires won't do this.

What would happen to the water cycle if there were no rain?
Well if the rain stopped coming then there would be nothing for the clouds to evaporate, so then there would be no rain and the water cycle would just completely stop===No rain means no water cycle, but while the first answer is correct there, it shows complete misunderstanding of clouds and of basic meteorology generally. A cloud does NOT evaporate water, but is an accumulation of water that has ALREADY evaporated and then condensed into a visible aerosol of minute droplets. Rain results from the cloud's internal conditions allowing the droplets to coalesce so become too heavy to stay buoyant in the air.
What effect can too much or too little rain have on the biotic factors in an ecosystem?

How can severe storms over the ocean affect shoreline erosion and depostion?
Well severe storms may make more sand erode because of the hard winds, heavy rain, and waves would take rock away. But on the other hand the waves would also bring in rocks so there's still more erosion but the still is deposition.
