It may have bad valve stems, bad oil rings or coolant getting inside the chamber.
Start by putting a bottle of Seafoam into the crancase and monitor things.

It is probably normal due to the climate in your area. Note if other cars have similar white smoke at the same time. Check and monitor your coolant and oil levels. If dropping or oil is milky gray looking you may have a head gasket issue, but I bet nothing is wrong. A little white smoke from a cold engine or in a damp or cool climate is normal.
You did not state how many miles are on it, that info helps with diagnosing these issues.
Also try a bottle of Techron Fuel System Cleaner in the gas tank. Get the larger size bottle.
