679445732 MDU6SXNzdWU2Nzk0NDU3MzI= 4341 Computing averaged time produces wrong/incorrect time values 13301940 closed 0     3 2020-08-14T23:15:01Z 2020-08-15T20:05:23Z 2020-08-15T20:05:23Z MEMBER      

What happened:

While computing averaged time using time_bounds via times = bounds.mean('d2'), I get weird results (see example below). It's my understanding that this is a bug, but I don't know yet where it's coming from. I should note that in addition to getting wrong time values, the resulting time values are not monotonically increasing even though my time bounds are.

What you expected to happen:

Correct averaged time values

In [4]: bounds = xr.DataArray(np.vstack([dates[:-1], dates[1:]]).T, dims=['time', 'd2'])
