A sunspot is a region on the Sun's surface that is marked by intense magnetic activity, which inhibits convection, forming areas of reduced surface temperature.

Auroras are not directly related to sunspots. However, sunspots are associated with solar flares and coronal mass ejections, which can cause geomagnetic storms on Earth. These storms can enhance aurora activity, making them more likely to be visible at lower latitudes.
No, sunspots are "holes" in the sun's photosphere that allow you to see the layer just below. They are produced by concentrations of solar magnetic flux lines.

The dark spots on the surface of the Sun that represent areas of cooler temperatures are called sunspots. Sunspots are regions on the Sun's photosphere that appear dark because they are cooler than the surrounding areas, due to intense magnetic activity inhibiting convection. Sunspots are temporary phenomena that occur in cycles and can have significant effects on space weather and Earth's climate.
What is true about sunspots
Auroras are not directly related to sunspots. However, sunspots are associated with solar flares and coronal mass ejections, which can cause geomagnetic storms on Earth. These storms can enhance aurora activity, making them more likely to be visible at lower latitudes.

Sunspots are regions that are around 1200 degrees Celsius colder than the surroundings. They are caused by magnetic fields, which inhibit convection.
Wind Storms!
Wind Storms!
I assume you are talking about sunspots, as they are, in effect, "storms on the sun". They occur on or near the sun's surface.
poopy storms most of the time
Yes, new sunspots form all the time during solar maxima.
The cooler dark spots on the sun are called sunspots.

storms are traced with different kind of things that meteorologists use.
Astronomers have known for many years that sunspots are "storms" on the sun's surface, and also that solar prominences seen flaring from the sun during an eclipse probably come from sunspots. what they do not know - yet - is why the sunspots occur in farily regular cycles of many, gradually diminishing to few, and then rising again to many. Times of high sunspot activity are usually also times of high Northern Lights activity and radio interference on earth.
