The house is about twenty years old and we've never had any leaking issues before in the two years we've lived here. We have had some window condensation issues in the winter, but only during crazy weather changes. The house is a bungalow and the one window is on the main floor and the leak was very minor. The other window is in the basement and the amount of water was a bit more and the wall was a bit wet as well. Both windows are within a few meters of each other but are not directly on top of one another.
Thoughts? Something I should just keep an eye on? Get somewhat out right away to check it out?

Would be good to see a picture. Also, if you shine a flashlight you will be able to count the number of reflections to tell if you if it's triple pane, double pane or single pane.
If the seal is broken or compromised or submerged in water on the outside a quick fix is to caulk where you think the leak is with silicone.
