Moisture Build up

Upon washing car, there is moisture between the window seals.

Is this normal?

Yes. It's normal for any car with frameless windows. You're blasting water at super-high pressure at a gasket that is meant to protect from rain and wind.

Thank you

Totally normal, important note is after washing don't roll the windows down for a day or two, otherwise you'll get water spots and streaking all over the window, water likes to get trapped in the felt seals. Also you can go over the area with the moisture in the picture with rubbing alcohol and a towel to clean it.
