Nuke or Asteroid?
This is a tough question. For Ann Arbor can they both hit just moments apart?
We just want to make sure. There are a few others that come to mind as well.
There are a few regions and countries that make the list as well.
Now a serious moment. Can you imagine if something like a meteorite hit a major city?
:(

:p
Meteorites don't hit the ground...meteors do. Meteors only become meteorites after they've hit the ground.
So there. Pffftttthhhhh...

Asteroids: Uh, We Almost Got Asteroided Yesterday[/mili]
A 30-50 meter-wide asteroid just passed seven times closer to us than the moon, glowing so bright you could see it through a cloud. If it had hit the ocean, it would have tsunamied.
The Sydney Morning Herald says that if it had been headed toward a populated part of the world, we would have had 24 hours to act and evacuate. Sky and Telescope says that it was about twice the altitude of our communications satellites.
To put it into perspective, here's io9's list of scariest asteroid attacks on Earth, not including this one.
