Default Surprisingly low temps forecast later in the week

The forecast charts suggest winds from a warm direction all week, an
extreme returning form of a polar airmass which has tracked well south
over France and even Spain. This sounds similar to weather I
experienced in Seattle on August 18th, when temps in the 25-30 range
were experienced. This setup in summer has occurred here before too,
and 25c is fairly typical.

Why then does the Met Office forecast a combination of sunshine and
below-average temps (20c in the southwest, 21c at Gatwick) for
Thursday?

Countryfile was going for 25C in the SE at least all week.
