Default flooded trunk

I have had my 1999 LS 400 for several years and have noticed a musty smell in my trunk before but I just discovered yesterday that my trunk was full of water. We have had a lot of rain recently but no leaks that I know of. Has anyone else had this problem? How do I need to attack this? No leaks appear in the trunk seal itself.

We got a lot of rain recently and the same thing happened to my '98 LS. I had an independent mechanic look it over and he replaced the trunk seal. It hasn't rain since i had it done. I hope it solves the problem.
