Le Chateliers's principle also says that lower pressure air decreases temperature... When the temperature and dew point are close together (on a day like this) the pressure lowers above the wing to create lift, but also lowers the temperature to the dew point, creating a temporary "cloud" of a sort.

from comments, lower pressure is lower temp, should have remembered that
