What you want isn't available in numpy, the library we wrap:

```python

In [3]: da.values.clip(lower.values, upper.values)
Out[3]:
array([[ 1.,  1.,  2.,  3.,  4.,  4.],
       [ 6.,  7.,  8.,  9., 10., 10.],
       [nan, nan, nan, nan, nan, nan]])
```

But I think what you want is this:

```python

In [11]: lower_inf = lower.where(lower.notnull(), np.inf)

In [14]: lower_inf
Out[14]:

  * x        (x) int64 0 1 2
