Dry off round the coil pack and check if water has settled around the plug's.

If you must clean the engine bay, then, do it whilst the engine is hot, this should let most of the water evaporate!

It will probably juter and miss until the water has evaporated

It will be water in the coil/leads, even plugs. The more you drive it, the better it should get.
