Default 'Sizzling' Noise?

I'm wondering if anyone has noticed a 'sizzling' noise from the underside of your car. It sounds like water is hitting a hot part. Not sure if this is a normal occurrence or if it's indicative of a problem. Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

I hear it too and have no idea what it is. Maybe water from AC condenser hitting exhaust pipes?

Its a normal occurrence. Condensate runs off of the A/C unit and hits other parts that cause the sizzle.

That's what I was thinking - just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one hearing the noise. Thanks.
