Water getting into FW 24F

I have been having an issue with water getting into my 24F. After heavy rains - we are in NC so Florence was heavy rain - we have water on the kitchen countertop behind the sink and stove. I can’t see any signs of water coming in through the window so I’m wondering if it is coming in the range vent? Any thoughts?

If you haven't had previous issues, write it off to Florence. If most of the water is in areas where there is an outside vent, it's most likely blowing rain. If it's been an issue in the past with normal rain (if that exist), then you need to go looking around.

It has happened before. I sat in the coach during a downpour today and saw water running down the inside wall under the range hood. Turn out the outside vent cover was leaking due to bad caulking. Looked on top of the vent and there was no caulk. The side was hit or miss.
