Steam when raining indicates water getting to somewhere hot, such as the exhaust or the engine itself.

i believe it has to do with the humidity in the air. It gets sucked into your intake and since it doesn't burn, the high heat from the combutsion turns it into steam. Giving you the white smoke. If it does it all the time (which you said it isn't) then that is a good indication of a blown head gasket.

the white smoke with rain is normal also on high humidity cold days. and is nothing to be concerned about.
