Has anyone tried leaving their roof vented in the rain, intentionally or unintentionally? I'm curious how well it deflects rain. There appears to be a gutter around the window that would seem able to transport most rainfall away to drains, except in an intense downpour. Eventually I'm bound to leave it in that state during a Tstorm, but so far have not. Anyone know from experience what to expect when we do that?

Thanks!
 
Left mine open today as well. When driving droplets seem to make their way inside, but seemed OK when sitting still. Of course, if it really started to come down and/or the wind began blowing the rain sideways, you could have an issue
 
Just did it accidentally and we had a downpour. The inside was fairly droplet covered in a line across the seats and center arm rest. I think it was droplets hitting the roof and the side splatter coming in.
