Technically correct, if you pick and choose what part of the sun. 

 

1. Their Bubble Bullets Are Louder Than a Gun and Hotter than Lava

These sharp-shooting crustaceans are far from quiet — their bubbles have measured in at 218 decibels, which is louder than a speeding bullet. To us humans the sound isn't actually that loud, but that's due to the blast only lasting a tiny fraction of a second.

When the bubble pops, it generates heat that reaches 8,000 degrees Fahrenheit (4,427 degrees Celsius), four times hotter than lava. The heat dissipates at rapid speed so there are no lasting effects (except to the unfortunate small creature that felt its burn).

 Sunspots on the photosphere appear dark because they are cooler than the other parts of the sun's surface. The temperature of sunspots can be as low as 5,400 to 8,100 degrees F (3,000 to 4,500 degrees C) according to the University Corporation of Atmospheric Research (UCAR).

Here they go again! Hyperventilating weather reporters! OMG, WIND, SNOW, WAVES, LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS! OH MY!! This is New England in January! That's what we do (except the lions & tigers). We wouldn't cancel a Pats game for this! Only thing I'd change is I'd be back in El Paso!
