If you don't have "shop air" - buy a can of compressed air (electronics stores carry that). Open sunroof, pour a little water into the drain on both sides to confirm it is blocked, if so, get some wet tissue, use that to plug the hole
And stick the red tube of the compressed air can down there - blast a few times (with shop air careful not to use too much pressure)- and that should clear the problem. Test with water again and make sure it is draining under the car.

If that doesn't work you may need to remove side vents and cut the ends off the drain tube .... But method #1 was cheap, easy and worked for me ....
