Water dripping from 3/4 from front on passenger side

Water is dripping passenger side aft not all the way to the rear, anyone know about this?

Possibly water from the catalytic converter? I think there's a drip hole in there for water to drip out.

I figured it may have something to do with humidity

Yes, that's just from the drip hole on the bottom of the muffler.

Don't worry, its a good thing. The Hybrid has a heat exchanger in the exhaust to recover the lost energy in the hot gases. That makes the gases cooler, causing the large amount of water in it to condense out. There is a drain hole about where you see the water. You would only see that water on a gas-only vehicle in very cold weather, as it would pass through the exhaust pipe uncondensed as steam.

Your profile says you're in Texas. If it's been cold where you live, it's likely condensate from the exhaust system.

If it's been hot where you live, it's likely condensate from the A/C.
