SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

I have no idea what to do about this leak IN (it seems) my door handle when it rains/when I wash my Jeep!

It just recently started 2 months ago - there's no leak from above and I've checked all the surrounds, I just can't seem to figure it out. I'm hoping someone on here has seen this and can help, please! I do have a soft top on right now but as I said it isn't dripping down from anywhere so I'm just lost... It's only on the passenger side as well. When it rains hard from the side I can see drops stream down the lock.

I've also noticed a lot more water on the side also but not sure it's related

Thank you!!!

The bottom pic is normal water. The top two, Hmmmm. Worn weather seals on the door where the window goes down into it??

I figured the last pic is normal but at this point I am just so confused!

Maybe I should take a pic of where the window goes down too? It actually looks in better shape than the driver side... Which I guess makes sense since no on is ever on the passenger side!!!

Sit inside the vehicle and have someone spray it while your inside. Could be a lot of things..all likely minor.

Saw that awhile back on an Audi...
Had a cable that was mis-positioned from the latch to the handle.(not sure if Jeeps use a cable or linkage?)
The water from the glass ran onto the cable and "wicked" down the cable and leaked onto the arm rest....
Probably need to remove door panel to inspect ...
