Despite poor model performance as of late, I have a bit of a feeling that something may be coming down the track here as we pass mid month. Shorter range guidance has been consistent in developing another strong N Pacific jet extension (developing in association with the strong ULL currently over northeast Asia), which then progresses and develops into a strong Aleutian low, which pumps the heights in the west and torches western Canada in some solutions, which also blocks cross polar flow from developing.
Obviously going further out is getting conjecture-heavy, but the breakdown/progression of said ridge eastward would likely open the door for the jet energy associated with the Aleutian low to move into the Gulf of Alaska and possibly open the door for a western trough/eastern ridge configuration to develop (probably transient as well). As long as the pattern doesn't become significantly blocked up, and with a persistent +NAO and lack of a strong -AO this seems somewhat likely at least over North America, a warming trend seems possible from mid month into the third week of the month, along with a storm or two developing out of the aforementioned western trough (obviously sensible wx impacts are nonsense to consider at this point, but I'm sure most can figure out what such a configuration may lead to).
We'll see how this plays out in coming days. I wouldn't call it a forecast per say, more of a pattern recognition observation based on what similar progressions have developed into recently. This is of course rendered more volatile by the aforementioned problems with guidance recently, although large scale synoptic features seem to be relatively consistent across the suite currently at least in the earlier going over the west/central Pacific.
