The space rock, which is about 30 feet (10 meters) in diameter, will be above the Southern Ocean, south of Tasmania, at the time of closest approach. Asteroid 2013 LR6 was discovered by the NASA-sponsored Catalina Sky Survey on June 6.

It lasted maybe 5 seconds and it was blue and orange in color. I saw it over the Fredericksburg Area in Virginia. It was very cool.

We have had fireballs before without foul weather. The microscopic particles left in the atmosphere have no effect on the weather.
