Water in passenger side footwell

After a hard rain yesterday, I realized the foot-well of the passenger side is soaked with water. Definitely, window was closed. What can be the issue? Thanks.

You need to carefully look around and find the source where water is coming from. Check glovebox, door panel, A pillar and lower portion of door - maybe you can still see water droplets or something to diagnose location it's coming from. Depending where the water was coming - it may be several things.

Is there any AC drain hose on the passenger side of the footwell? I saw a thread which people addressed their driver side footwell water issue with fixing the hose in the driver side footwell, but I don't know if the car has also another one in the passenger side?

In some older BMWs, this was a clogged drain from the sun/moonroof area.

Sunroof drains and/or under the hood near the windshield bottom corners - leafs and dirt collect there and clog the drains.
