When trying to process an EPW file from here (see "Download Weather Files" link), OpenStudio is throwing an error:
The error is coming from here. I'm sure there is a logical explanation but I do not see the problem. This EPW file does have a LOCATION as the first field in the first line just like every other EPW file...
Also attaching the EPW file here as backup: USA_OR_PDX_ETONZF_Future.epw
