Cleaning and Stain Removal - How to dry out a wet leather car seat?

Hi!
We have an Accord with leather interiors. Its just one year old. My husband forgot to close the window overnight and it rained that night. As a result the seat became the wet. We were shocked to see that we forgot to close the window :( . Immediately, we wiped out all the water from the car seat. But still I guess the padding has water. Unfortunately there is no sunshine today, so that we could dry out our car.
1.I would like to know how to absorb water from the seat padding?
2.Will the water damage the leather? even after drying?

I would really appreciate any help in this matter. Thanks a ton in advance.

If the leather was treated...it should of repelled some of the water..as for drying out the pad..depending on how the leather is attached you may have to pull the leather off or take it to someone to do so...as if it stays wet for over 48 hours your going to start looking at a mildew or mold problems and its going to start having a odor

The leather may shrink after drying..depending on the type of leather..some leather types do not loose color after being wet than drying..but then again some will bleed dye.

Placing a small dehumidifier in the car may expedite drying and removal of moisture from interior of auto. Carpet and upholstery that remain wet 24-48 hours tends to breed mold and mildew and musty odors.
