LT1 Cranking problem

My 95 TA started having ignition problems about 2 weeks ago. I came out to crank it one morning but it would rarely catch. Occasionally it would start to catch and the car would start shaking pretty violently and die with a loud cracking noise from the engine. I slowly made progress with it and it started after about half an hour. I took it for a quick spin and then restarted it and it came up perfect. It runs just as well as it always has without any odd noises after its running. Every couple of days I'll have trouble starting but it usually comes up withing 15 seconds or so. It seems to get really bad when I leave it alone for over 24 hours or it rains extremely hard. Any ideas?

Thanks guys!

-Mark
