At 15 degrees almost any car will have white condensed water vapor coming out the tailpipe immediately after starting. The major products of combustion are CO2 and H2O, so when the tailpipe is cold some of the water vapor will condense before exiting.
If the white smoke seems excessive, or continues when the weather is warm, then it's a problem. As it is, it's inconclusive.
