Default Leaking?

Ok so when it rains there is a spot in the passenger side where water sits and when it rains hard it builds up over night, now it will not leak into the car and drain out normally, however when i accelerate after it has built up it will leak into my car... any ideas why this would only be happening when I accelerate? (after i have accelerated for a little bit the water will all come out then it will stop) Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks for any advice!

Where on the passenger side? Over the outside shoulder? If so, there's a drain tube there in the convertible top recess. You may just want to check to see if the drain tube is clogged up.
