During a solar eclipse the moon is in between the earth and the sun. The moon blocks light from the son, causing a solar eclipse. (This is during the new moon phase.)

The two points where the moon crosses the plane of the earth's orbit are known as the 'nodes' of the moon's orbit. If the moon happens to be near one of the nodes at the time of New Moon or Full Moon, then that's exactly when either a solar or a lunar eclipse can occur (respectively).

Do eclipses occur monthly?

Eclipses of Jupiter's moons occur daily. But if you mean the regular solar and lunar eclipses, no, most of the time the Moon will pass by one of the sides of the position required for the eclipse, so there is no eclipse. That is because the Earth's orbit around the Sun, and the Moon's orbit around the Earth, are not exactly in the same plane.Eclipses of Jupiter's moons occur daily.

When there is a solar eclipse is the moon cold?

At the time of a solar eclipse, nothing on the moon's surface has changed from the way it always is at the time of a 'New Moon'.
