We have had a second, this time wet, snow storm and wife noticed tonight thisd
evening that the carpet on the floor of the dining/living slide near the front
door is damp. No evidence of water behind the slide seal on the side. Can't get
to roof outside. No indication of anything unusual around the Arizona awning.
Nothing accross the top of the sliding on interior and nothing on the walls or
around the window. Nothing around the Arizona skylight on that end either.

If its warm enough tomorrow or Monday I plan to pull in the slide a bit if its
not frozen and see if I can find an intursion point.

Anyone have any ideas?

Any air gaps that snow could have blown in?
Shouldn't be condensation.... it will show it's self as a leak sometimes by building up at the bottom corners of slideouts, usually the bedroom slide!
did someone track in snow and not fess up to it...
