[R] Odd dates generated in Forecasts

Dear friends,

I have a weekly time series which starts on Jan 4th, 2003 and ends on
december 31st, 2016.

I set up my ts object as follows:

MyTseries <- ts(mydataset, start=2003, end=2016, frequency=52)

MyModel <- auto.arima(MyTseries, d=1, D=1)

MyModelForecast <- forecast (MyModel, h=12)

Since my last observation was on december 31st, 2016 I expected my forecast
date to start on 2017, but instead it returned odd dates.

This is my dataset

dput(dataset):

[R] Odd dates generated in Forecasts

Thank you very much David. As a matter of fact, I solved it by doing the
following:

MyTimeSeriesObj <- ts(MyData, freq=365.25/7,
start=decimal_date(mdy("01-04-2003")))

After doing that adjustment, my forecasts dates started from 2017 on.

Cheers,

Paul
