Blinking CEL on startup, then fine

Coil packs and plugs replaced last year.

Car was sitting in my driveway in cold rainy weather for a few days. I started it up today, and I got a lot of shimmying and a blinking CEL. Then I put it into reverse, and as soon as I started moving, the CEL turned off, and the car ran fine. Was there condensation or moisture in the system?

Thank you!

Scan for codes to see if there's anything else besides misfires. Cold start misfires can be attributed to a lot of things, especially carbon build up.
