Help seed disaster

hi everyone
ive just discovered a disaster and need your advice.
my seed tin was inadvertently left outside in the rain and all my envelopes of carefully collected seeds are soaked. Is this a saveable situation?
So far I have dried out on paper towels the larger seeds however the really tiny ones are more of a challenge. Would it harm them if I gently dried them in the envelopes with a low heat hairdryer.

I would open the packets and let them dry on the windowsill.
Unfortunately I don’t have windowsills..... yes i know sounds weird but French windows don’t have them! At them moment I’ve placed the open envelopes to dry upright in the open tin On a table indoors.
will seeds which have been wet like this then dried still be viable?
they often get wet in the garden, spread them out on sheets of kitchen towel or anything absorbent, they'll be dry in no time
//Unfortunately I don’t have windowsills// Anywhere dry and warm then!
Great thanks I’ll dry them out again and cross my fingers for next spring.
