Seems to be a fairly common problem.... my 94 Formula (ABS INOP) has done that a few times, and my 2001 Silverado (TRACTION INOP) seems to do it almost always in heavy rain and snow. I would guess its a problem with one or more of the wheel sensors.... possibly the water affects the connector, or the signal reception.

As noted, a "scan" of the ABS/TCS system would tell you what set the code, and which sensor to look at.
