A leak coming from the A-pillar is common when the drain for the sunroof (if applicable) is clogged with debris. Open the sunroof and clean the drain channel as well as the drain tube. Pour some water down the channel to make sure it's draining properly. I used a bicycle brake cable to clear the drain on mine when I had the same issue.
If you do not have a sunroof then it's likely a bad windshield seal.
Caution: Water coming down the A-pillar can get behind your dash along the firewall and wreak havoc with critical electrical connections located there.
