have u been using ur A/C lately? if so u really should check the drain plug that lets condensation out of the system. ever notice when u use ur AC that ur car drips water? well if this is plugged up, it will put the water in the pass side floorboard. otherwise check ur heater core to see if it is cracked, or a hose has come loose, as stated by the gentlemen before me. good luck!!!!

I think the best thing to do would be to jack up the car, crawl under there and look for the water drain stains to locate the drain hole. Then stick a wire hanger up in there and gently poke around. Don't jam it in there or you could damage the evap core, but that's the easiest way I can think of unless you want to pull the dash out.
You might try blowing compressed air up the drain, instead of a wire hanger.

look for the drain on the firewall if u have a compressed air source blow into the drain but becarful all the crap blocking the drain will move and a bunch of water will come pouring out and if you are on yourback will more then likely splash in your face
