If your outside grading is such that you get water against the slider that is higher than the track during heavy rain you will get water indoors. Our neighbor got water in Lanai before enclosure and therefore raised lanai floor when they enclosed.

If water gets in track from direct rainfall, the track drainage should be adequate to keep water out.
