First, if the area impacted is going to be thousands of square miles we’re going to be in the category of global catastrophe - world killer.

That said, the possible impact area, even 24 hours out, is going to be even larger. There are too many variables, not least is tumbling, calving, and buffeting when it hits atmosphere.

And with that noted, you’re not evacuating a major city in 24 hours. Parts of it, sure, but not whole cities. Start with the doubters, add the procrastinators and the caretakers. Nope, not gonna happen.

Yes, should have been more clear. I don’t mean for the impact site to be that size, but that that much area would have to be evacuated due to the shockwave, debris, etc.
