Water from muffler ?

[MRGUD]

Hello,

Noticed today when i started my truck a lot of water / wet under it.
It was around -2C here today, vehicle was off for many hours (so it was cold start).

To be honest with you, never seen this before, this much.

It was dripping from here:

Please advise

One of the chemical byproducts of combustion is water and because exhaust gases are so hot, it’s typically expelled as water vapor. In cold weather, the water vapor quickly condenses into a liquid state after leaving the exhaust. Seeing a wet spot or puddle under the tailpipe is typical, but...

ETA:
Patsy is more righter than I was. Hot water vapor from the exhaust will condense against a cold muffler and a fancy weep hole will let it drip out. It’ll be more noticeable in cold weather because more water vapor condenses before the exhaust system warms up.
