Why won't my car start when it rains?

Question:
I have a '93 Honda Accord EX Sedan with about 105,000 miles. Every time it rains, the car won't start without having to be repeatedly cranked, sometimes it takes 2 hours to start. It drains my battery and I have to charge the battery to make the repeated attempts. If it's sunny, no problem. I'm thinking something is getting wet in the ignition system but I don't know what - I'm no mechanic, for sure. Once it's started, there is no problem restarting it even if it rains more. It runs fine otherwise. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
