Wouldn't recommend white, shows dirt really bad, any of the quality mesh jackets in a lighter or hi viz color should work. BMW dealer or BMW On
Magazine should be a good start

BMW Airshell with the liner removed. Vented front, arms and sides and very bright. Only had the liner out once here in July, I froze

As a SE Florida resident myself I can say definitively that any jacket will be hot pretty much all year. As a riding commuter and ATGATT convert, I wear a black mesh jacket with armor, with a class 2 safety vest over it. The safety yellow vest seems to help reflect some of sun's heating effect as well as providing increased visibility. The included liner lives in my top box for those occasional cooler morning/evening runs. When going any distance, I wear a 1 piece fully perforated suit by TEIZ Motorsports. http://www.teizmotorsports.com. Wears like a "Stich" but designed for tropical heat. The suit is not waterproof but has waterproof pockets and I carry a rain suit in the panniers. For the price of a stock Roadcrafter, you get a fully custom Teiz. Check them out.
Oh the places we will go

Olympia makes a few mesh jackets that have a white base color.
