Numerical Weather Prediction or NWP, a popular abbreviation in the weather community, is a mathematical way to solve for the set of governing equations that predicts how the atmosphere will change over time provided with specified initial conditions such as temperature, moisture, wind speed, etc. In the early part of the 20th century, Vilhem Bjerknes and Lewis Fry Richardson, notable pioneers of meteorology, suggested that it would be possible to predict the weather by solving for a system of no
