The quake struck at an intermediate depth of 118.80 km beneath the epicenter near Taipei, Taipei City, Taiwan, on the afternoon of Sunday, November 1st, 2026, at 4:20 pm local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review the data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their reports. Our monitoring service identified a second report from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), which also listed the quake at magnitude 4.8. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 4.6, the citizen-seismograph network RaspberryShake at magnitude 4.6, and Taiwan's Central Weather Bureau (CWB) at magnitude 5.6. Weak shaking might have been felt in Jiufen (pop. 3,100), located 34 km from the epicenter; Yilan (pop. 94,200), 34 km away; Keelung (pop. 362,500), 43 km away; Xizhi (pop. 204,600), 45 km away; Neihu (pop. 274,500), 53 km away; Taipei (pop. 7,871,900), 57 km away; Banqiao (pop. 551,200), 62 km away; New Taipei City (pop. 4,004,400), 64 km away; Shulin (pop. 180,000), 66 km away; and Sanxia (pop. 115,200), 70 km away.
