Been there and done that. Check to see if heated air is leaking through the ducts into the passenger compartment. That will cause water pouring from the rear. I discovered the symptom on a 1400 mile trip. Halfway through it, I pulled the heater cover, bought some file cards and duct tape at a drugstore, and taped the cards over the heater outlets that point straight down under the dash. That got us home until I could pull the heater valve and replace it, and replace the foam seals in the heater as well.
