Description

So I just ran into an issue with using two monthly datasets that are not pinned to the same day of the month. One uses the first, and the other uses the 15th.

See:

(datetime.datetime(1989, 1, 1, 0, 0), datetime.datetime(1989, 1, 15, 0, 0))

To fix this we need:
Daily data to be forced to an hour value of 00:00:00
Monthly data to be forced to the first of the month at midnight
