Alien Abductions in the Book of Enoch and the Search for Noah's Ark

But for the ocean levels to drop 130 meters overnight world wide, well that would take a tremendous amount of heat. The only thing hot enough to do that in our local environment is the Sun. 

So what happens to all that water? 

Well if the ocean levels have dropped 130 meters world wide, it means that 130 meters of the ocean is remaining on land as snow or ice.

So i’m thinking that when the Sun does a huge blast that hits earth and evaporates a ton of water, its much more than 130 meters worth. Lets say twice that amount, and a lot of it would come raining down on the earth all over the earth, starting off as hot rain, warm, cold, hail, snow.

Everywhere would be flooded with rain, the hardest rain you’d ever experience, for months…

Your source may have misread or misinterpreted geologic evidence. The oceanic levels never dropped 130 meters in a single day.  Over time, yes, and in a relatively short time (thousand years or so.)  

Also, you're thinking of the map of the world as it exists today.  There's times when the Earth had more land mass showing above the oceans and times when there was less land on the surface.  You can have local rises and drops due to things like ice dams breaking (good example is the local big flood and local rise in sea level with the formation of the Scablands) 

You might want to recalculate your idea of the sun causing a massive evaporation event.  Unless you boil the planet, you're not going to get instant evaporation -- it takes a long time to get water into the atmosphere and the more water there is in the atmosphere, the slower things evaporate.  In addition, the water vapor would precipitate the moment it hits colder areas (anywhere on the planet with winter conditions.)  Should you actually force that amount of water into the air, the atmosphere might be unbreathable.

While interesting, there's some other considerations that don't make your suggestion viable, IMHO.
