What Does NWP Stand For?

NWP stands for Numerical Weather Prediction

NWP, or Numerical Weather Prediction, is a method used to forecast weather by applying mathematical models to atmospheric data. By simulating physical processes in the atmosphere, NWP utilizes current weather observations, including temperature, humidity, and wind patterns, to generate predictions about future weather conditions. This approach enhances the accuracy and reliability of weather forecasts, making it an essential tool for meteorologists worldwide.
