Solution for rainwater diversion


I have an interesting issue. I have a 3:12 sloped roof that abuts a nearly flat patio roof. If the wind blows from a certain direction, it allows water to intrude into my patio ceiling. If I could install a gutter on the slopes roof, I could eliminate most of the water from the area, but I only gave about 2.5-3” of space between the shingles on the slopes roof and the patio roof. Shallowest gutters i have seen are 4”. Does anyone have a clever solution?
PS: This is in Florida, so bonus points if you know of something that can take some serious wind.
