BUG: comparison/indexing causes ValueError: buffer source array is read-only

[dmitra79]

• [X ] I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

• [ X] I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

• (optional) I have confirmed this bug exists on the master branch of pandas.

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example

di=np.array(['2016-12-27 02:02:09', '2016-12-27 02:02:09.017000',
               '2016-12-27 02:02:09.033000', '2016-12-27 02:02:09.050000',
               '2016-12-27 02:02:09.066000'],dtype='datetime64[ns]')
di.setflags(write=False)
v1=[95.746, 95.735, 95.722, 95.709,    10]
v2=[-86.474, -86.491, -86.505, -86.513,   11]
temp=pd.DataFrame({'v1':v1,'v2':v2}, index=di)
temp=temp.astype('float64')
temp2=temp.v1-temp.v2
temp2[temp2>180]=temp2[temp2>180]-360

This code throws an error:

Any movement on this? It's still marked as 'Needs Triage'?
