Intermittent power window failure

As the title says, I have an intermittent issue with the power window in the driver's door. It always works, with the exception of when it gets really damp during the night. In that case when I get in the truck first thing, the window will go down, but not always up the first few tries.

My first thought of course is to replace the switch ($110) but it just seems odd that it only happens in damp conditions.

Thoughts?

Yep, first check the fuse box to make sure it's not getting wet, some early SD'S were prone to have windshield leaks and it dripped on the fuse box, causing weird things to happen.
