erupts so there is at least time for residents around the volcano to
prepare before the actual eruption occurs. People should know
that before a volcano erupts there are warning signs such as
rumbling sounds, continuous emissions of steam, increasing
temperature around the volcano that results to withering of plants
around and unusual behaviors of animals and earthquakes.Here
