When you see stacked vertical siding, you must have a piece of metal flashing between the two pieces of siding (commonly known as drip edge) to keep out any possible water penetration.

Water damaged siding

If not, you will usually find soft/deteriorated siding at the seams,affecting both the top and bottom pieces, as seen in the attached picture.
