This also appears to be a problem with readNWISgwl command. Site numbers are returned as numeric with scientific notation.
Sorry about that! There's a fairly big update to readr
coming out any day now. I pushed the update for that a bit quick. You should be able to get the fix here for now (remotes::install_github("USGS-R/dataRetrieval")
). There's already another planned CRAN update late-July that will include this.
Just updated to 2.7.8 Noticed the command readNWISsite returns a numeric id (see below, USGS 4.142401e+14) for the site_no column, rather than character. I have a number of scripts that use this command, and join on that field, so noticed when they returned errors.
library(dataRetrieval) test <- readNWISsite("414240072033201")
note that you also get this message now, which is new
