your MAF might be wet or dirty. I used to get that when the weather got really humid until i cleaned it.

Maf is a good idea to look at, mine does that if the airfilter gets wet.

happened to me last night during the massive rain storm after i mashed a huge puddle.... had to pull over for a minute to let the massive amount of water come back out the filter and couldnt get on it again until i drove the car 3 hours later after it dried up.
