I don't mind north-westerlies. Here in Surrey, they are usually not too
hot, not too wet, and have a reasonable amount of sunshine. Yes, maxima
will only be in the low twenties, but that's warm enough for me.

You are lucky John, I hate north westerlies in Summer, we've had our
dullest July by some distance and first 7 days of August have recorded
just 14 hours.
It's also been wet and some days last week felt quite chilly. I for one
will be happy to see the back of them!!

I never complain about relatively cool weather in summer, but the number
of cloudy nights has been exceptional - I can't remember the last night
that was completely, or even mostly clear...
