Yeah, the tops of the windows are leaking. I bought some new weatherstripping so I'm hoping that it will solve the problem. Adjusting the windows doesnt sound like a good time to me.... I guess we'll see.

Weatherstripping may not solve your problem.
This could be the start of something breaking - so you should really check the door out.
How big is the gap between the weatherstripping and glass? Can you see through it? Does it leak when it rains or only when you go through a car wash?
BTW - If the problem is small, you just have to take off the door panel and turn a screw.

My driver's t-top had a tiny leak where it meets the window. I adjusted the t-top and checked by spraying water on the car. I did it a couple of times and it fixed the leak!
Move the t-top (either side) slightly forward or back until you stop the leak. Spray with water and repeat

You can adjust weatherstrips with butyl (dum dum) tape sandwiched between the body and weatherstrip.
I would try to adjust the window first. Also the weatherstrip that is on the car body (A and B pillar) has drain holes in it, make sure they are not clogged.
