Wet weather will wreck havic on bad spark plug wires. Do you know how old the wires are??
I would also be a little cautious due to all the codes you have been getting. It seems that there is a problem and it is triggering all of these other codes. Either that, or your mechanic is taking you for a ride.
The key thing you should check is the Air/Fuel ratio which consists of the intake and fuel systems to see if anything is wrong there. Next would be the ignition system. Your problem will probably be found in these areas. These are very complex systems to diagnose, so you might want to find a trusty mechanic or dealer (gasp) and have them run some tests.
