Drivers side floor/carpet is soaked so I think it maybe a leaking heater core if thats where it is located or just a loose connection.

If it is clear water, it is a clogged ac drain.
If it is coolant then the heater core is bad. Very labor intensive as the dash has to be removed to gain acess to the case. It pays over 6 hours in a shop plus the ac evac and charge.

Have a shop check it to confirm
