Hi Dave distilled water has a high resistance and a dielectric constant of about 80 (PTFE 2.3). You should find the current goes up soon after it stops raining, maybe as the ground water starts to absorb minerals, but also as the film of water get shaken off the wire. Finbar had a similar effect when we were trying to measure antenna ground loss on 136.
