Question emtabmm need your help

As a new user and someone who sees that you have the answers, I have a few concerns that I need help with. First my "charging system(battery) light comes on when it I first start my truck on damp days, or if it is raining or snowing. By the time I get to the dealer, over 20 miles, the light sputters and goes out; so they find no problems. Any suggestions, has this been a problem with anyone else with a '03 F250 XLT PSD? My VIN is 1FTNX21P73EB67858 built 12/02 and I bought it in Sep '03. I did have one check engine light and was running on limp mode till they reloaded memory. Seems to me that the "battery" warning light is part of the problem or am I wrong. Thank you.
