Unhappy Passenger door leak

Hello all, might be something simple but I am having an issue. My passenger door is leaking (I think). I have applied weather stripping adhesive to it and this made it stop for a day or so but then there was a really bad storm in our area and I found my passenger floor board to have 1-2 inches of water in it again. The roof liner around the door gets wet enough to drip down onto the seat and the floor. I believe it may have something to do with the seal in the door however they are in great shape. They are always wet after it rains on the inside. I also have run a drain snake down the drains in the sun roof but they didn't show anything. The only body shop in the area is the dealer so it will be quite expensive to have them just find the issue, let alone repair it. Just wondering if anyone knows any quick fixes I may not be aware of. Thanks!

Depending on what is the real cause, sometimes a minor adjustment of the door hinges will solve the leak problem where the weatherstripping doesn't form a good seal
