My first thought would be thru the vents on the fridge if you had wind from that direction. Do you have a water line there for residential fridge? I would also check the caulking on the lower trim piece, if there is one, on the slide. Many bedroom leaks have been caused by a bad calking job on that lower trim piece.

Yeah I have a similar problem when it rains real hard and the wind is blowing on that side and have tried recaulking the trim checking the slide out seals and cannot find the problem if I pull out the drawer under the stove I can see the water slowly coming out of the bottom of the back wall and I did open the fridge vents and it was bone dry in there SOOO when it stops raining I will get on the roof and check the around the slide up there and if I find anything I will let ya know

First thought after fridge vents is about the water cup on the backside of fridge (lower vent opening) and is the tubing from inside fridge overflowing the cup? Probably couldn't account for amount you guys are seeing.
