sounds like a blown exhaust

Morning guys wondered if someone has had the same problem I'm getting now with the Rex

If there's a lot of water on the road the car sounds like it's got a blown exhaust but there's no real loss of power.
I don't think it's miss fire but was thinking if it was anything to do with the oxygen sensor on the cat as it's only inches from the road.
This only happens when it's real wet so clearly electrical but clears once road conditions are dry again.
Hope someone can help thanks guys.
