Yes, it was predicted - both generally in years leading up to 1980 and more specifically in the months before the big blast. In the weeks leading up to the Volcano hazard zones were blocked off around the volcano due to an expected eruption. However the scope and exact timing of the eruption were not forseen - hence 57 people lost their lives.
