There are usually wipers on the top and sides that squeegee water and debris from the slide They do little if any sealing. The seals are a bulb type that are pressed against the slide lips when it opens or closes. Most leaks seem to be due the bulb not being adequately compressed or with something letting water past it.
The blade seals should do a good job of keeping water out.
Now depending on the type of slide drive you have,that could be the cause. Cable and gear drives provide a path for rain water to get past the seals.
