[8pt] Possible bug in Sierra test / rating_curve_comparion

[RobHanna-NOAA]

A PR (1301 is pending merging for rating_curve_comparison which simply add a duration system.

During testing for that change, a possible bug was detected in the logic.

A large number of HUCs were processing well, but also a very large amount of both warnings and errors.

Below is a copy/paste from the log outputs:

As mentioned, this might not be a problem. If not, maybe we can add some notes to the file to help manage expectations.

This review / possible change will be needed in the next four weeks appx, as we are preparing for another BED/production run.

Update: Nov 13, 2024

We need to create the output folder earlier in the stack:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Duration system added with 1301, but this other part could still be a bug. Also added a new bug at the bottom of the main body about no such dir when starting the log file.
