You may be experiencing runaway applications which will load your CPU and cause temperatures to rise and speeding up the fans. Look at this link:

Next time this happens, identify the offending application. If it is one you can shut down, do so. A restart usually will cure the problem. If this persists, take a screen shot to use as diagnostic evidence for the genius bar technicians.


Ciao.
