r and look for leaks.
Could be easy like a hose or connection

Could be medium like a thermostat or something that won't take long.

Could be something with the connections to the heater core which you can change out

Could be harder like a water pump and unless you know what you are doing just have it done.

Could be really bad like a head gasket, intake gasket or something in the engine

Just dry it all and use paper towels to see where it is leaking. If there is that much you should see it quickly.

If you see nothing, turn the car off after it gets up to temperature. Sometimes things will only leak under pressure = when hot. But sometimes (rarely) they will only leak after it has cooled down.

My guess is a hose connector is loose
