If the leak is from the centre of the car (ie under the engine) it could be the water pump, thermostat or one of several rubber connection hoses.
As Paul suggested, untill you get under the car you are guessing - and guessing or leaving the problem to sort itself out is not a very wise decision....
Just make sure the coolant level is not too far off the max mark in the expansion tank !!
