If the water can get in around the seal and fill the 18" at the side of the
screen as a column of water, it exerts enough pressure to push itself over the
1/2" sill around the windcreen opening.  I have had this problem in a camper
which gap-seeking sealants for screen use seem to have sorted out.
I guess there could be another explanation and/or solution.
