Default Fluid Leaking

Hello,

I recently purchased a certified 2015 Rx 350 with 33k miles. A few weeks ago, I noticed a small puddle (5-6" in diameter) of fluid (appears to be water) underneath my car.
Initially I thought my car was leaking fluid but when I leave my car unused for a day or two, I don't see any dripped fluid underneath my car.
Now I am thinking maybe this is due to A/C usage?! Anyone have any idea what can possibly lead to temporary fluid drip underneath our Rx?

Thanks in advance!

If you weren't in CA, that'd be something to be concerned about, as some of us are where the temps are starting to get close to freezing.
AC water discharge is normal.

Actually I'm surprised at how much less water discharge it has compared to my Mercedes.
