WinHSPF3.1 Bug - requires timeseries to exist in output wdm #23

Closed TSHAIKH78 closed 5 years ago

TSHAIKH78 commented 6 years ago

WinHSPF 3.1 requires the existence of a timeseries in the output wdm before the model is run (assuming a previous output wdm exists). A workaround so far, is to run HSPF from HSPEXP+ (or other HSPF executable) and this seems to alleviate the issue.

PaulDudaRESPEC commented 5 years ago

HSPF versions 12.2 and earlier require an output wdm timeseries to exist prior to simulation. A more recent enhancement (in pre-release versions of HSPF 12.3 and later) creates those wdm timeseries automatically. Thus the fact that WinHSPF requires a timeseries to exist is not actually a bug but a limitation that will go away with a future release of HSPF.
