It was coming from where the coil was housed. I've seen this before, but couldn't remember what the problem was. See below in the first picture. But then my wife reminded me that the hose line that directs condensation out of the unit was probably clogged up. And she was right. So I took our shop vac and put the hose on backwards so it would blow air out instead of vacuum and connected it to the water line. It cleared the line right out and no more clog.
