It depends of the size of the asteroid is the right answer.
if discovered a such close notice it's most likely a small stone. Had it been a big one, it would have been discovered at least a year before hitting.

I would give Jay ideas to sell T-shirts:
Inscription: "Bush and now this!" and drawing of the impact on earth

Elmat would not worry:

So it's a small one: 2/3 is water most likely will hit water. make a nice tsunami. Make a little destruction and that is it.

Hitting the ground? a little crater a small schock wave, hitting a populated area? Very unlikely. There are too much unpopulated area to the odds be it hitting downtown.
