Los Angeles Airport Weather Records, June 12–13, 1994 (Defense 1280)

Official U.S. Weather Service records for Los Angeles Airport covering the evening of June 12 through the morning of June 13, 1994, reporting temperatures of 63–66°F and dew-point data. Introduced as Defense 1280, the records were later used by Barry Scheck to argue that wet grass at Rockingham resulted from sprinklers rather than dew and to support his blood-tracking theory.
