What are three events that might signal a volcanic eruption?
One event that could be a signal of a possible volcanic eruption is if there is an earthquake near or around the area.
How do you prepare for a possible eruption and what to do in the event?
You can prepare for a possible volcano eruption by closely monitoring the news and local authorities. In the event of an eruption it is usually best to flee the area to prevent light threatening injuries.
Are there any signs of Kilauea's last eruption?
Yes. Kilaua's "last eruption" is still going on and has been for 31 years. So in some places it is possible to see active lava flows from this eruption. In some cases it is possible to see areas that have been covered by previous lava flows from this eruption.

No, because earthquake magnitude scales don't actually have limits!

Who measures earthquakes?
The United States Geological Survey monitors worldwide seismic activity.Earthquakes are rated along the Richter scale. The Richter scale was invented by a seismologist, Dr. Charles Richter, and is a measure of the largest seismic wave recorded on a particular kind of seismograph located 62 miles from the epicenter of the earthquake.
