Looks pretty bad in this asteroid impact simulator: https://neal.fun/asteroid-launcher/

How accurate is this? I just feel implicitly that a 1mi asteroid would leave a creater bigger than 30mi wide upon direct max impact ;)
I also wouldn't expect an impact in rural Kansas to create a 2,500 foot tall tsunami.
If you scroll you'll see that the fireball is much larger than the crater.
