Small asteroid hits Earth.
As predicted.
Asteroid 2008 TC3 was just discovered and found to have 99.8% probability of hitting the Earth, most likely above Sudan, this morning. As reported widely on the news.
Here is a nifty pre-impact track image of TC3 and another one
Spaceweather.com reports, after dutch meterorologist Jacob Kuiper (any relation?) notified KLM crews to lookout for fireballs, that a crew reported a flash north of their track, possibly consistent with impact.
With nifty image of plane location and possibly impact location (click through to see proper image)

It's a good thing that this was all over and done with before the traditional media could spread panic!
