If they are very hot it is because the ash had been molten lava just a while ago.
However ash often cools quickly due to its large surface area compared to a bomb or block, which remain hot much longer.

Are areas near the volcano hot or cold?
They can be either. Most of the time a volcano is not actively erupting. So the temperature mostly depends on what the weather is. Even during small eruptions, lava and gasses do not heat most the outside of the volcano very much.
Why would a hot spot volcano stop erupting?
lower magma reserves or the volcano tube has closed/shifted.
What will a rock do inside a volcano if it get hot?

How can there be snow on erupting volcanoes?
In some cases hot gasses, lava, and ash do not make it very far from the vent or rise above the volcano before they have a chance to melt much snow.
How hot can a volcano get?

What are some volcanoes that begin with the letter Z?

How hot is a volcano core?

What are the hazards of an erupting volcano?
The hazards of a volcano can be quite serious. For example, the lava which is extremely hot and can burn you to death. The volcanic ash goes into your lungs when you breath in and when a volcano erupts, it may cause earthquakes. I hope this answer helps!!!
Is it hot near a volcano?

Do all volcanoes have hot spots?
No. While volcanoes can erupt very hot material, a volcano that is not actively erupting may not be any warmer than an ordinary mountain. Even on an active volcano, temperatures away from the vent may be normal.
