White smoke, can't tell if its bad or normal

I took a video of idle and rev to see if there was any smoke coming from my pipes.

At the 20 second mark you can see white smoke coming out, but I can't tell if its enough to justify coolant being burned or if its just normal.

Also its almost 100 degrees where I am so Im sure its not steam of any sort.

Just looked like normal start-up condensation to me; a bunch of water droplets came out too.
