Lightning can heat the surrounding air to about 6000 degrees Celsius, approximately the same temperature as the surface of the Sun. However the air cools down almost immediately.
Also the surface of the sun is the coldest part, the closer to the centre you get the hotter it is (and, mysteriously, the sun's atmosphere is much hotter than the surface too).
A lightning bolt can be up to 30,000 degrees Celsius, while the surface of the sun is about 5,500 degrees Celsius. Therefore, a lightning bolt can be around 5.5 times hotter than the surface of the sun.
No it is not. the suns core is 15 million degrees Celsius. Lightning does not even come close to that hot. Lightning is, however, about 5 times hotter than the surface of the sun.
well it depends on which part of the sun you are talking aboutlightning is about 20,000 °C (36,000 °F)and the sun is the surface of the sun is about 5500 °C and 100000 °F.But the core is much hotter.
sometimes. Lightning bolts have been known to be extremely warmer then the sun
The surface of the Sun is 5,778 Kelvin or about 5,500 oCThe core of the Sun is about 15,700,000 Kelvin or 15,700,000 oCA lightning bolt is about 30,000 oC so hotter than the surface of the Sun.A quasar is probably the hottest thing around, where the brightest onesconsume about 100 Suns per year.

No, lightning is not hotter than the core of the sun. Lightning can reach temperatures of around 30,000 kelvin (53,540 degrees Fahrenheit), while the core of the sun reaches temperatures of about 15 million kelvin (27 million degrees Fahrenheit).

The sun is hotter than a lighting bolt :)Most lightening bolts are as hot as the surface of the sun. the inner part of the sun is hotter than a bolt though.
The lightning strike can get up to 30,000 Celsius which is 6 times hotter than the surface of the sun.

For the milliseconds that it exists, a bolt of lightning is actually hotter and brighter. However, it isn't there long enough for you to notice, so in effect the sun is brighter. This answer is partially correct. A lightning bolt appears the be brighter than the sun because it a lot closer, but it's not actually brighter. & a bolt of lightning is hotter than the sun's surface & a few layers under it.
The surface of the Sun (photosphere) is hotter than the air in the vicinity of a lightning strike. The temperature of the photosphere can reach about 5,500 degrees Celsius, while the air around a lightning strike can reach temperatures around 30,000 degrees Celsius.
