Cooling System
Ever notice when parked for a while on a humid day when the AC has been on that there is a water puddle under the car?
Unless you smell coolant, it's probably water. Likely condensation from the evaporator on the air conditioning. There is a hose to drain away condenstion. Either the hose came undone, is kinked, broke, or the housing on the evap is cracked.

Easy fix. Your condensation drain is plugged under your car. My Accord went through the same thing about a year ago. The Honda techs simply raised the car, got a compressed air hose and sprayed about 3 quick bursts of air into the tube and about a 1/2 to 1 full gallon of water came out of that tube! It was plugged by dead bugs and random road debris.
before I had that done, water backed up into the right front passenger area and it even spalshed my Dad's legs on a hard turn! Funny! So, no worries, just have that done. The Honda/Acura techs should be familiar with this issue. The tech told me it happens quite a bit and before I even completed telling him what was going on, he was pulling my car around and took care of the problem. Good luck!
My car does not really drain water in Colorado because the A/C isn't really extracting out the humidity since there isn't any in CO. But since I have been on the Gulf Coast in Mississippi the last week, my car pours water out of that drain since there is over 90% humidity here! Geez. The A/C system is working as it should thank goodness
