leaking roof S70 2000

It's raining in southern cali and my wife's car has a leak somewhere from the roof. After sitting in the rain, water collects on the roof liner around the console above the rear view mirror. A few drops fall upon acceleration and deceleration. Maybe its the windshield, or one of the two rubber stips running along the roof, though I'm not sure if they're welded seams or formed channels. Appreciate your input. thanks.

The car doesn't have sunroof so must be the windshield if the two rubber stips are ony decorative.

It never rains in Souther California, it just pours for days on end!!! You leakage is probably from a clogged drip tube from your sunroof. When it stops raining next month, use a leaf blower to blow all of the junk out of the sunroof cavity.

It is my understanding that the rubber strips are "decorative" only and do not function as a block against water/the elements. Do you have a sunroof on the car?
