Condensation on Outside of Windshield w/AC On

Curious to see if anyone else has had this problem. On hot, humid summer days and humid mornings, I'm getting a lot of condensation on the outside of the front windshield with the AC on. Even with the air direction **** set all the way to front vents, there is still some cold air coming out the windshield defrost vents causing the issue. It's done this over the last few years, and seems to be a little worse this summer, but it definitely did not do it at some point in the (probably now distant) past.

I haven't done any deeper inspecting yet, but I'm thinking it's either an issue with the vent piping, or the cable mechanism attached to the manual air direction **** not setting the direction all the way to the front vents. Anyone else had this issue?
