Default Moisture on inside of windows

OK everyone, I have cleaned out the drains on my wifes VW Beetle & the water seems to not be getting into the floorboards anymore,

BUT

I am still experienceing a lot of moisture forming on the inside of the windows, so much so it beads up and begins to run down the windows.

Any Ideas on what might be causing this?

thanks

Is it possible you have moisture on the inside of the car and the outside cool air is causing it to condense on the windows? If so, put some air drying agents inside and leave the windows open a bit, and do a real good job of drying out the inside.

Something else that helps a little bit is when you are driving, turn the heat and A/C on and the recirculation too. The A/C removes moisture from the air. It's not quick but it does help.

If you have a garage, put the car inside, open the doors and sunroof and side windows and aim a couple of fans so they blow air through the car. This will help the evaporation process.
Also, if you can somehow raise or remove the wet carpet the increased circulation will speed up the evaporation process.
