Water managing to leak inside

About a month after I got the car it rained a decent amount one night and I woke up started car with a puddle of water on front passenger side floor. It was a good amount of water and when I started driving more and more it was spewing out below the glove compartment until it drained completely and I vacuumed it up.From research online I think the sunroof drain might of been the cause and I was thinking about trying to replace or clean it but didn’t feel like going through the process.
That was 3+ months ago and it has rained a good amount of times since then with no problems. The past 2 days have been raining nonstop and heavy, and today I was vacuuming my car when I got to behind the driver seat I noticed it was wet. Nowhere near as wet as the time before where it leaked on passenger side floor but water def managed to leak into the car. I don’t know how it could of got there and that is why I am here. Im assuming the leak has something to do with the sunroof like the other one, but I thought the sunroof drains lead to the front of the car, how could the water be behind the driver seat? I just wanna fix this **** so I don’t have to get anxiety every time it rain any help is appreciated.

There are drains on all 4 corners of the sunroof, if the rear ones clog it leaks onto the floor in the back seats.

If you never open your sunroof, there will be nothing to clog
