韦塞尔

《华尔街日报》经济编辑韦塞尔报道。在美国，制造业自2008年1月以来首次增长；

In the U.S. , the manufacturing sector grew for the first time since January 2008 ;

但韦塞尔拒绝进屋，说龙卷风正在远离他们，于是他的妻子拍了一张风暴的照片，发给了她的父母。

When her husband refused to come inside , saying the cyclone was moving away from them , Mrs Wessels took a photo to show her parents the storm .

照片中，韦塞尔一身夏日休闲打扮，穿着宽松的短裤，戴着太阳镜，在一场身处可怕的云柱背景下，完全不紧张。

In it , the sockless Mr Wessels , dressed leisurely in summer shorts and sunglasses , is seen in mid-stride , utterly unflustered by the calamitous column of cloud .

此事是这样开始的：韦塞尔当时正在修剪草坪，他们9岁的女儿向他的妻子塞西莉亚发出警告，当时一场猛烈的龙卷风在从远处逼近。

It all started when Mr Wessels 's wife , Cecilia , was alerted by their nine-year-old daughter that he was mowing the lawn while a ferocious tornado loomed in the distance .

我们一直往西开行，1月11日，我们走过了韦塞尔角，角在东经135度和南纬10度，是卡彭塔里亚海湾的东尖端。

We were traveling due west and on January 11 we doubled Cape Wessel , located in longitude 135 degrees and latitude 10 degrees north , the western tip of the Gulf of Carpentaria .

当被问及龙卷风当时离他有多近时，韦塞尔答道：“我一直看着呢”。他的态度和他花园的风格一样酷，而这件事让很多人对他敬重不已。

When asked later about the tornado 's proximity to him , Mr Wessels 's nonplussed response , " I was keeping an eye on it , " seemed as cool as his gardening style and itself attracted more than a little esteem .
