Default Leak from auto trans

I was looking under my car today and i noticed a steady drip from about 5 inches in front of the transmission crossmember. it was a few drops per second, so I'm kinda concerned. If it actually is my transmission leaking I'm afraid jacking it up may cause more strain, so i cant get a good look at the direct source.

I did get to smell the liquid. and it's like water but kinda cloudy. not much of a smell.

any recommendations? car details in sig

Transmission fluid is going to give off an odor. And not like water, cloudy or otherwise.

Maybe you are just seeing the condensation dripping from your AC?

if it is cloudy and like water it could be just the condensation mixing with dirt from underneath your car. When you are running the ac for a while condensation forms and drip steadily.
