Rain on the floor.  Oh well, it's ruined-better sell that rust free TX
car to me.  lol, just kidding.
Besides the sunroof drains, if you have them, I would check windshield seal,
the rain tray in the engine compartment and drain holes in the doors.  If 
the rain
tray drains are filled with crap then it fills with water and comes in 
through the
heater box.  And if the door drains plug then it overflows into the passenger
compartment.
