Cheesecake got water in pan :(?

So I've been experimenting with cheesecakes and was using the water bath technique.however when I took it our of the over, water had accidentally leaked over the side of the aluminum foilI'm very worried the bottom of my crust is now going to be damp, how to I fix this! It's already past the stage of cooling in the over, it is now on the counter for 30 minutes before I put it in the fridgePlease help, and fast!

Answer:

There's only one way to know for sure and that's when you remove the ring off the springform panBy now, you've taken it out of the water bath and removed the foil It may not be as bad as you expect it to be and tomorrow when you remove it from the pan you may be able to take it off the base of the springform pan and set it on some fresh dry graham cracker crumbs if it's actually wetThat may help absorb some of the dampness caused by the overflow while it was bakingI wouldn't recommend returning it to the oven to dry out the crustGood luck, cheesecakes are not easy to make and the ingredients are costlyI hope it all works out for you.
