I certainly hope you can put together everything you need. If you have
any questions, please post a clarification request *before*
closing/rating my answer and I'll be happy to reply. If you need more
data, perhaps your local library would have a Meteorological Atlas of
Los Angeles County.
Thank you,

Search Strategy.
I used our own bookmarks and searched weather websites. I also used
the Davis Climate Data Sources links. Searching on Google using the
usual terms (pasadena climate historical weather california
precipitation temperature, etc, yielded little in the way of results
that you could use). |
