Hello. Normally the amount of water vapor that the air can tolerate is only to a certain extent. But the ability of cold air to absorb water vapor is much worse than that of hot air. So in winter, the water vapor present in the air exhaled by humans/animals will not be absorbed by the outside air; so it will condense and turn into white mist. So the exhalation of smoke will depend much on the outside temperature and humidity, not on the condition of the breather.
In your case, although the air temperature is not too cold, high humidity will also cause the same situation. Can you see if this happens in the people around you? Good health to you
