Could be a faulty steering rack or pinion, you need to get the steering mechanism checked out professionally

if doing it when wet there could be an issue with water getting onto the auxillary belts or steering pump system could also check the steering knuckle joints have seen a few lateley that get the water in them and tighten up when turning give them some lube and see if this improves it if it does change asap
