same thing happened here. 4 year old block house. A Holly. Our 3rd bedroom in front faces outside wall which faces directly EAST. All night it was pummeled with such heavy wind and rain. When looking out the window in bare feet this morning I felt dampness in the carpeting by the baseboard.
The outside - sand/dirt and landscape rock coverage is an inch or so higher than the concrete slab level. I assume a very small amount of water seeped into the crack between the slab and bottom of the block in that area.
I rolled up a couple bath towels to cover - although all it really needs is air to dry out. I may run a hairdryer over the area. I would say a cup or so of water seeped in. Nothing to worry about.
OP depends on amount that came in - if small as for us...it's nothing - and will probably never happen again unless Irma II arrives in the future.
