Water dripping in Driver's footwell

[Boykin4]

Driving today with the convertible top down with the air conditioner running due to heat and humidity. After about 2 hours of travel, began noticing some water dripping from behind dash onto feet and legs on the driver side (see image with water spots on the floor liner). It's not a large amount of water (at least not yet). I am thinking that this is probably related to running the air-conditioner with high humidity, but haven't experienced this before. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

Likely normal.

Cold AC ducts constantly seeing humid air will condensate and that water will eventually make it to the outlet.

That's exactly what it is. Just like when you run your A/C with the window down in the summer and the vents condensate.

I have a 2024 Mustang Dark Horse doing the exact same thing

I reached out to one of our engineers. He said:

Insulate the air ducts behind the instrument panel. Can’t stop cold surfaces from condensing water out of humid air…
