They forgot "is it followed by a bright flash and mushroom clouds?" → nuke, so grab some whiskey and make your peace because you're probably too close.
Is "fireball" a technical term here? Because I only know the wizard kind and they do end in a dramatic explosion.
"Fireballs and bolides are astronomical terms for exceptionally bright meteors that are spectacular enough to to be seen over a very wide area. ... A fireball is an unusually bright meteor that reaches a visual magnitude of -3 or brighter when seen at the observer’s zenith. ... Fireballs that explode in the atmosphere are technically referred to as bolides although the terms fireballs and bolides are often used interchangeably."
