I would first clean the MAF with the proper cleaner and take it from there.

Might have moisture around the plugs. I have had moisture cause a miss when cold and also had it cause when hot. Guessing it flashed the moisture up into the wire??? Either way - replacing the coil boots was probably my best investment. Spent a lot of effort working out a miss that new boots cured and kept cured.
