Almost 100% certain that water went under the black plastic spark plug cover and filled at least one of the plug holes. Take it out, pull the plug wires and check. If wet, dry everything really well, including the spark plug wires. You may also take out the distributor cap and dry/clean it too.
Classic symptoms of water cleaning of engine in these cars...
