Default Keys getting rained on cause this?

I have been driving my car today and nothing has been acting out of the norm. Later tonight I try and lock my door via key, and it wont react. So thinking to myself someone didnt close the one of the doors all the way. So I re closed ALL the doors. Now knowing that all my doors are closed my key is still not locking/unlocking. Am I the only one that had this problem today?

If your key/remote got wet. . yea... that would cause it not to work, like any other car alarm remote water and electronics don't mix to well.

I have noticed my xb do that when it rains. The worst door is the pass side front door. It only seems to happen when there is a bunch of rain on my car.
