very loud crackling!

Opened the door this am and had extremely loud crackling and buzzing with sudden outbursts coming from front speakers. Even with car off or with volume muted it persists. It did recently rain here was wondering if anyone has an idea of what it may be? I read something about water in the amp? Does anyone know where i should check?

Happened to me once! Even with the car off. I unplugged the negative battery post for an hour. Plugged back on and the problem went away. It's been over a year now no issues.
