Default Sunspots Much HOTTER Than Sun's Surface

Sam I'm thinking Sunspots are about 2500F cooler than the rest of the
photosphere.,and that is the main reason they are black.. In their 11
year cycle they seem to form at greater and greater latitudes,as high up
as 40 degrees. This thought just jumped in. After the end of that cycle
the Sun switches polarities,and that means the magnetic flow goes south
to north,and the sunspots move back to the equator I could easily say
the sunspots are cooler at the equator(using good science) but I won't
Sun spots need lots more thinking. Good science gives the reason why
they can't travel along the sun's equator. Why they can't all be the
exact darkness. Never the same size. Taking out my universe's picture
book and looking flat down on them the first thought I get is the
feature of the cellular granules are slightly curved around the
sunspot,and that gives me the idea that the sunspot might be also a
vortex. Might be just me.living in Florida. and surrounded by
vortexes (tornadoes) Go figure Bert
