I'm thinking the 2094 date may be the next time an eclipse coincides with the solstice.
Clouds seem to have cleared out again here.
Edit:
So it would seem.

Geoff Chester of the US Naval Observatory inspected a list of eclipses going back 2000 years. "Since Year 1, I can only find one previous instance of an eclipse matching the same calendar date as the solstice, and that is 1638 DEC 21," says Chester. "Fortunately we won't have to wait 372 years for the next one...that will be on 2094 DEC 21."
