Default Ice Buildup on Freezer Floor

I defrosted the fridge, then checked the drain tube. Sure enough, there
was an ice clog in it. I poured some hot water down it and it flowed
free. It appears to be working fine now. Thanks for all of the tips
from everyone.

Leaking door gaskets / clogged defrost drain line.
You may need to toss your frozen goods in a cooler and do a real good
defrost and blow or vacuum the drain line.

I've been browsing the postings for answers to my problem, but can't
find an exact match. So, hopefully, someone can provide some insight
for me. I have a Whirlpool fridge with a top freezer. The unit is just
over one year old. Recently, we have experienced ice buildup on the
floor of the freezer. We use a wooden spatula to break it up, but
within a day or two, it is back. Freezer and refrigerator temps seem
to be normal (0 deg and 37 deg, respectively).

Any input from you experts would be appreciated. Thanks.
