At least you know the matrix isn't blocked 
Most likely the climate control needs resetting

Bu-ut, coolant is passing through the matrix all the time isn't it? It's air flaps that decide how much enters the interior. (?)
It's worth noting that in warm weather I often have the experience that if it's been driven for a bit, then parked for a bit, I typically get a blast of hot air next time until the warm air that's been collected in the dash while it's been parked has blown out, before getting cool air through again.
