Arrow 2003 rear hatch in the rain...

The rain has started to come down here in the great Northwest and leads to a quick poll of 4th Gen owners:

Anyone find that opening the rear hatch in the rain gets water into the truck?

I was out with my wife in a heavy rain yesterday and we opened the rear hatch to put some boxes in and a *lot* of water funneled in. Luckily I use Husky mats so nothing got wet past that, but it seemed odd.

At first I thought maybe I left the rear window open, but I hadn't. Since we did not see (or know to look) where the water came in from I can only guess it somehow ran in off the door as it was going up.

Anybody else notice this?

I haven't noticed it, but then again, I've not been out in a pouring rain in a while....
