While it’s difficult to determine how many were caused by the cold snap, the correlation is concerning. <br /><br />Since Tuesday, a powerful cold air mass has caused temperatures to drop across Taiwan, reaching lows of 10°C in northern and central regions. <br /><br />The cold snap is exacerbated by Taiwan’s infrastructure. Buildings here are generally designed for tropical heat and very few have central heating or adequate insulation. <br /><br />Reporter: Irene Lin/Chloe Wang <br />Videographer: Ryan Wu <br />Video Editors: Alison Nguyen <br /><br />#TaiwanPlusNews #TaiwanNews #ColdSnap #ColdAirMass
