A magnitude 4.1 earthquake was felt at 20:44 on March 17. The epicenter was located 35.5 km southeast of Yilan County Government. Yilan experienced shaking intensity level 3, Hualien level 2, and Taipei City level 1. The Central Weather Bureau has noted that recent seismic activity has been relatively low. Based on past observations, periods of low earthquake frequency may be followed by larger quakes, so this tremor can be regarded as normal energy release.

A felt earthquake occurred on the evening of March 17.

On March 18 (Monday) and 19 (Tuesday), a weak frontal system will pass through. On Monday, there will be localized brief showers in central and northern Taiwan, eastern regions, and mountainous areas of the south, while other areas will be mostly cloudy, with temperatures ranging between 17–23°C.
