I pulled up the track on all my windows using a small flat-blade screwdriver. The weep holes looked clear but I blew the tracks and holes out with a compressor anyway. Debris and dust flew around, but nothing major. We had a good rain storm yesterday and there were no leaks. The trailer was not level due to work I'm doing on the suspension and my theory is that the water did not drain properly from the holes. There were water stains on the fridge vent louvers which show the odd tilt of the trailer. I have since leveled the trailer and hence, no leak.

I think it was a combination of accumulating dirt and maybe some construction dust. One flaw is all the drainage off the rook on that side comes off the awning right down the window, this summer I’ll be designing a rain gutter to divert it .

When I cleaned out my tracks, it was mainly road debris. There were a few pieces of aluminum from manufacturing but not enough to clog the tracks.
I used this https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01CJ...b_b_asin_title to divert rain from my windows. It works OK if no wind. I'm not convinced it's worth it.
