Help - Water on Floor

Hi CL members,
Hope that you can give me some insight on my problem. Last night I noticed that there was some water on my passenger floor mat. I had been a relatively dry yet muggy day and had started drizzling prior to my noticing the water. My car had been parked for about 6 hrs then driven about 5 miles. I felt up behind the glove box and that's were the water was coming from. Haven't contacted the dealer yet but wanted to know if anyone has experienced this. Any idea what's happening? Heater core died or what?
Thanks

The first check your evaporator drain hose and make sure it not clogged up. If the drain hose is clean and clear, you may need to take it to dealer because most likely your evaporator housing may be split.

were you running the air conditioning? if so, I would bet a plugged evaporator core drain as already mentioned... if not, then heater core...
