Pick any year that has a solar eclipse, and there's a darn good chance

that there'll be one 370 years later.

There are typically 1 - 4 of them every year.

In the 100 years from 1901 to 1000, there were 228 solar eclipses,

for an average of 2.28 per year.

No, solar eclipses are more frequent than once every 370 years. In fact, solar eclipses occur on average about once every 18 months somewhere on Earth. The rarity of a solar eclipse in a specific location could last more than 300 years, but they are not globally that infrequent.

No. Solar eclipses happen about twice a year. About half of them are "partial" eclipses, and another quarter or so are "annular", but on average, there is a total solar eclipse SOMEWHERE in the world every other year. But because solar eclipses affect such a tiny swath of ground, it is very rare for one spot to experience two solar eclipses in a short period of time.

But it does happen. The city of Carbondale, IL will experience a total solar eclipse on August 21, 2017, and a second total solar eclipse less than seven years later, on April 8, 2024.
