Drain?

I walked over to my truck this morning and found a small puddle of water that formed underneath and just forward of the passenger side. I popped the hood and checked the air conditioning condenser but there was no moister around it. I poked around and saw where the moisture was coming from. It was coming from what looked like a drain. But, I don't remember running my air conditioner anytime during the recent days. The picture attached shows what I'm talking about. If this is normal, then I'm not worried about it.

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks.
WB

I just recently had similar leak in the same area and it turned out to be the water pump. My temp gauge was showing about 10 - 15 degrees hotter than normal.
Check your water bottle , if it's low that may be your problem.

@Rrloren1: Thanks, I'll check, but my temps have been running normally. @BigIron70: That's a relief, thanks. Not sure why it would've been draining because I don't remember that I ran the AC. I guess it could be some residual condensation of some sort.

When you are in defrost mode ac compressor will run. Normal operation otherwise vehicle windshield will fog up.
