Water seeping through softtop

I've had 6 inches or snow sit on my top for days and nothing comes through. I am certain it had to be condensation on the warm side from you breathing. Vapor gets in all the cracks in the zippers, etc. and condenses on the warm side of the material.

That's just condensation
Warmth in Jeep plus breath condensing from two mammals plus cold on the outside = condenstaion on the inside of the top. It would be the same if you had a hardtop. No different than a waterproof tent which is why you never want to buy one. Buy the tent that breathes and use an outer waterproof rain fly (which most come with).
