This is the same as the 22 tuna fish sized asteroid reported earlier, only it has mysteriously enlarged from 90 meters to 30 miles.
Blame Brexit.

UPDATE: jpost has recalibrated from tuna fish to armadillos.

How big a city are we talking about here? Folks in Mississippi are especially curious in that regard.

I wonder if there will be greyhounds on that asteroid.

4000 Busses.....More proof the metric system is a failure.

Pretty sure it's not a city-killer until it kills, you know - a city.
