Default WHITE POWDER FROM A/C?

There's a white powder (no, not coke) that randomly comes out of my a/c for a few seconds and then goes away---this happened twice today as I had the a/c on low. Can anyone explain this?

Anthrax?



Seriously, I'm not sure. I used to get white smoke that would just stream from my Accord A/C vents when it was humid. I just figured it was some sort of normal condensation. If you're located in a high humidity environment, I'd suspect the same.

Are you sure is white powder or because of air temperature difference you get this effect? Am sure is not powder.

Only harm it can cause is freaking you out.

I did the first time it happened. Pulled over popped hood and looked for fires...
