Yes, it is common for the plug, on the passenger side, just under the a/c evaporator. You have to remove the right side of the console panel, and with you should see a black hose going through the frame, just above the transmission. If you manipulate it, you will most likely dislodge mud/dirt that has clogged it from underneath. You might hear the water drain quickly when it is cleared out.

I've had this problem several times and when I see water on the passenger floorboard, that is the first place I look.

It is possible to do it from underneath the car, the only drawback is getting splashed by all the condensation still in the line.
