Hopefully nothing like the one at
Tunguska Forest of Siberia in 1908. That one knocked over more than 80 Million trees.

This thing was loud and visible in a city of Yekaterinburg some 200 miles north of Chelyabinsk. You can find dash-cam videos in youtube already. It was spotted all across the middle and south Urals and west Siberia. I think it was really huge.

PArts of DA14 probably did hit; given how closely the Chelyabinsk meteorite(s) arrived to the time of the main flyby, they’re probably pieces of it. DA14 itself isn’t due for another 12 hours or so though.

There was also a 6.6-6.9 earthquake in some part of Russia (USGS is messed since Obama is Prez- they describe it as 83 m from Serbia, but it looks thousands of miles away from Serbia) http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/usc000f76f#summary
