Default Met Office: why Southampton so disproportionately mild?

I've noticed the Southampton area seems to be firmly in the mild
category on Wednesday (8C max, 7C min) while all around (including
Exeter) temperatures are much colder, e.g. Exeter 5C max 0C min for
the same time. This has happened once or twice in the current cold
spell - Southampton seems to be much milder than other south-coast
locations away from Cornwall. Why is this?
