I’m in a valley and the wind absolutely howls through here, never an issue with water getting under the garage door.
In my mind it gives me the best of both worlds. A flat shop space and less chance of rain water in my garage in a bad storm.

I'm excited about it. My last custom home had similar garage space, but it was split into two garages and not near as functional. I also have 30 feet beside the garage and it goes back a long ways. So I'll have my oversize 4 car plus a big covered RV canopy at some point. I like the idea of having all my stuff in close proximity. It makes it much easier to work on stuff. I also have an RV dump/50 watt plug, regular plug, and water spicket all planned for just outside the garage for the RV parking plus extra lighting..
