WIndshield seal is not uncommon for leaks.
Also make sure the drains in the bottoms of the doors are not plugged up. They get dirt plugging them up. One in front and back of each door.
Door jamb seals.
Trunk seals on sedan, hatch seals on wagon.
Airbox drains, including A/C condensate drain at firewall
Sunroof drains on sunroof cars. (Myth: sunroofs seal out water. Fact: sunroofs drain GALLONS of water down the 4 corners of the car through plastic drain tubing.) They plug up with dirt, twigs, squirrels, etc.
Antenna mounting hole?
Homemade door jamb penetrations - added speaker wires, power locks, alarm systems?
The old garden hose test works wonders.
And pull out your carpets and pads to dry NOW before they stink! you will kick yourself if you let it get all mildewed.
