Help with window gunk!

Normally when I wash my car and roll down the window afterwards, the window comes back up wet on the outside surface. I guess water gets behind the seal in between the outside of the window and the door.

Recently its been real windy and I think a little bit of dirt and dust got behind the seal too. Now after washing the car if I roll down my window it comes back up with dirty water on the outside surface and I have to clean it. This only lasts for about a day until the water where the seal is dries up.

My door has never been taken apart or windows tinted so I dont know how dust gets in there. I do drive a lot with the windows down but never when its windy or in bad weather so that could account for some dust/dirt. I blow dry my car with a pretty powerful leaf blower so I make sure the window seal dries.

Is there a way I can clean this? I was thinking of rolling down the window all the way and maybe cleaning the opening into the door with Q-tips or maybe squeezing a damp rag into the opening and wiping it clean.
