New Warning Messages in SWMM 5.0.014 to 5.0.016

These warning and error messages were added in SWMM 5.0.0.14 to 5.0.016 to trap questionable raingage, link and node data. Correcting these errors does make a better model . The list shown below has the major new warnings and errors and help on interpreting the messages.
WARNING01: wet weather time step reduced to recording interval for RainGage Explanation: The user selected hydrology time step is automatically reduced by the engine to match the rain gage interval. The smallest rainfall interval among all of the gages will be used during the simulation. WARNING 02: maximum depth increased for Node Explanation: The rim elevation of a node has to be at least equal to the crown elevation of the highest connecting link to the node. The maximum depth of the node is increased to match the highest crown elevation. WARNING03: negative offset ignored forLink Explanation:Negative Offsets are set to offsets of 0.0 WARNING 04: minimum elevation drop used forConduit Explanation: If the elevation acro…
