Default 99 Civic water on drivers side carpet

Hey, so my co-worker has a 99 Civic and she noticied underneath her floor mat was water. You can smell it too when you get into the car that something wasnt right. You lift up the floor mat and you can see the droplets of water coming off the bottom of the floor mat and you run your hands through the carpet its wet. where could this be coming from?

The heater core may have a leak. Do you smell coolant? Or does the carpet get wet only after a rain?

the window gasket will flow it all the way down to the carpet though??? I noticed when i opened the door some condensation/water droplets on the door sill nearest to the speaker
