Why do I have so much steam coming from exhaust? Seems like every time I start it I get lots of water and steam from exhaust. Is this just a function of cold damp weather?

Moist air condenses (becomes water) in the your exhuast system when it gets cold. When you start it up, it gets hot and the water comes out both as liquid and steam.
