Default Weird Sound

Ok so when the car reaches a good temperature after driving, it makes this weird sound after you turn it off under the hood on the passenger side I'm pretty sure. It's like something is dripping onto something hot and it sizzles. It's not just once or twice, it's repetitive for like 5-10 minutes. I can't seem to figure out what it is or what's causing this. Is this normal???

No worries. It's simply condensation dripping off the air conditioning system, dripping onto the hot exhaust.

Normal. And harmless.

Rock on with a smile.
