Default Wet interior - Tailgate panel

Unusual ..... on 2008 V 70 D5 96K....... no sign of anyone having a similar problem ..??

... twice in last 6 weeks, when tailgate opens and is raised, bottom of interior panel on tailgate is wet ( below rear window )... floor of load area where tailgate meets floor when closed ( tailgate panel then in contact with floor ) is also damp. Both times I have left damp umbrella in load area ... possible answer ? .... but !!... there seemed to be more water than caused by umbrella and I have left umbrella there in the past with no problems ( that I noticed ).

Dried out yesterday in sun / wind ( what's up with our weather ? ) with tailgate raised for 3-4 hours ... this a.m.... just slightly damp .. residual ?

Any ideas ??
