okay, my apologies for kinda steering your thread a little off topic there, here are my friends quotes relating to the odd earthquake, she lives in the Puna district so very close to the epicenter.

Indeed very weird.
Weirdly ironic, given the topic (and question asked) in the OP, but I have a friend who is supposed to visit me on the Big Island in a few days. Last month, I said "Hopefully I'll see you in a month, if the volcano doesn't blow." I meant it as a joke, but it doesn't seem so funny now...
Or a new bag of lava and gasses formed somewhere waiting to explode.
The next possibility is magma being forced up wards?
Or even gasses released explosively somehow.....
This is the seismic record for the past two days.
I am sure the siesmic record would show the difference between an earth tremblor and an explosion deep down...

An earthquake swarm on Hawaii island was recorded early this morning, causing more than 60 minor earthquakes, 14 of them greater than magnitude 2, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The seismic swarm began at about 1:17 a.m. today, and were located about three miles north-northwest of Kilauea volcano's summit.
The swarm was still continuing as of 3 p.m. Most of the earthquakes were not felt by Hawaii island. The USGS' "Did you feel it?" website received less than 10 felt reports in the first 12 hours of the swarm. The earthquakes are located along the Ka'oiki Pali, a southeast-dipping normal fault near the boundary between Mauna Loa and Kilauea volcanoes.
Previous earthquake swarms have occurred along the Ka'oiki area in 1990, 1993, 1997 and 2006. The swarms lasted anywhere from between a day to several weeks, much of them rarely exceeding magnitude 4

As time prediction is very difficult to say,as percentage is a matter of time.
I don't believe that a 100% chance that it will not explode is accurate.
Everything is changing and change is happening as each feels, but real change comes stealthily.
Guys our atmosphere is changing, our Solar System is changing and we will see more dramatic Earth changes before it's all said and done.
