This decade has fewest 90 deg days

The Chicago Tribune reports that locally, the first decade of the 21st century has had fewer 90 degree days than any decade since the 1930s. Some one whack David Suzuki and Al Gore upside the head for us, plz?

Here's the Tom Skilling Quote:

August is the wettest and often the muggiest month of the year. Yet, summer heat continues in short supply, continuing a trend that has dominated much of the 21st Century's opening decade. There have been only 162 days 90 degrees or warmer at Midway Airport over the period from 2000 to 2008. That's by far the fewest 90-degree temperatures in the opening nine years of any decade on record here since 1930. This summer's highest reading to date has been just 91 degrees. That's unusual. Since 1928, only one year—2000—has failed to record a higher warm-season temperature by Aug. 13.
