Bernoulli's principle states that a fluid in motion, when accelerated, will experience a decrease in pressure. While humid conditions are not common at LAX, the occasional rain will raise the humidity to the point that the pressure drop over the wing can be seen thanks to the brief condensation of the water vapor in the air as it passes over the wings.
