It is the Solar Flare
a solar flair is right near the top of the sun and passes on into space and reaches earth
Solar flares are brief outbursts that appear as a bright region above a sunspot cluster. Solar flares emit enormous quantities of energy in the form of ultraviolet, radio, and X-ray radiation.
The last Solar Maximum was in 2002. The Sun is currently at the minimum of the sunspot cycle, perhaps just at the beginning of the new Cycle 24. So far, the Sunspot Number for February is Zero - no sunspots at all this month so far (as of February 8, 2009). You can check the sunspot number, and see fascinating things about things in space each day at www.spaceweather.com. It is currently focusing on photos of Comet Lulin, the Green Comet. _________________________________ The problem with WikiAnswers is that if you ask a question that is time-related, such as "When was the last sunspot maximum?", the answer becomes less and less useful as time goes by. The answer above was from February, 2009; today is April 10, 2014, five years later. The "last sunspot maximum" answer now would be "last month", since we're at or near the Solar Max. It's been a long time coming; the last solar cycle dawdled for a year longer than it should have, and this cycle looks like it's going to be well below the average of previous solar cycles. But the spaceweather.com website, linked below, is still the best resource for questions like this.
A supernova is an exploding star. The Earth would be instantly incinerated, of course. There is approximately zero chance this will ever happen, though. If there was a supernova near Earth ... it would depend on how near. Betelgeuse is a good candidate for a supernova "soon" (within the next million years or so). Scientists who have modeled supernova explosions don't expect it will have much of an impact. If a star nearer than Betelgeuse were to go supernova, then it might be more serious.

A sudden heavy rain is called a downpour or a squall and generally occur in monsoon climates which are located near the Equator. Monsoon rains are often violent, strong and sudden.

I'm not sure which explosions you're referring to. But if an explosion were tooccur near a manned spacecraft, the people on board could not hear it.
they are called flares
This is the point on the earth's surface directly above the hypocentre of the earthquake. As such the seismic waves have traveled a minimum distance and so there has been a minimum dissipation of energy. This means they have retained the majority of their energy and so are able to cause the most damage.
