I'm going to give a few sizes of an asteroid/comet, whatever the difference is and you tell me what the impact would be like. I don't know the speed they travel at, but just average out the speed.
car sized striking the ocean/land
house sized striking ocean/land
city block sized striking ocean/land
stadium size striking ocean/land
