Thanks
The water on your floor mat does it look or smell like antifreeze/coolant? If not it is probably condensation from your AC (clogged condensation drain) or rain leaking in. When the heater core went bad in my Mustang 20 years ago, the air coming out of the vents smelled like antifreeze and when the engine was hot the air was almost steamy.
