The reentry window is narrowing to 2300-0900 UTC, (6 pm - 4 am central) tonight and tomorrow morning. During this window it will overfly the US twice, including Texas to NJ and a prior orbit that will fly over Florida approximately between Tampa and Orlando. The reason it’s hard to nail down the exact impact spot is the fact it’s traveling so fast and will break apart at different altitudes as it comes down based on drag variables. It’s hard to wrap your mind around just how fast it’s traveling but maybe this will help. When it's over Texas in orbit traveling at 18,000 mph, it only takes 2 minutes to go from Big Bend to Texarkana. It only takes 6 minutes to fly between Big Bend to NJ. Once it starts to break apart it slows down drastically. The predicted final Texas orbit includes Big Bend, Langtry, west of Junction, SE of Menard, Brady, Goldthwaite. West of Waco. Hillsboro, Lake Whitney, Aquilla, Bardwell, South of DFW, Kemp, Cedar Creek Lake, west of Athens, Canton and Gilmer, Lake Fork, Dangerfield, Wright Patman and Texarkana. The orbit continues east over Memphis, Nashville and Washington DC, then NJ.
Chances are still good for a water impact but other landmasses in the predicted final orbits include: India, SE Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and Central America, northern South America, southern Europe, north and east Africa, the Middle East and the Caucasus. The reentry predictions will continue to improve as we approach the afternoon.

And don't forget about the BIG sonic boom. I can still remember hearing that one Sat morning when the space shuttle broke up.
One shot is all it should take.

I had a brief image of Nancy Pelosi getting squashed, but too many good people would get killed if that happened, it was a pleasant thought for a moment.

Fell into the Atlantic on the west coast of Africa, a smaller piece fell into an African Village, no one was hurt.

Space Force is predicting it will impact tonight between 8-10 pm central on the orbit before it reaches Florida and two orbits before it would reach Texas and Washington DC. If it doesn’t impact on the expected orbit, on the next orbit it will overfly Florida at 03:18 UTC (10:19 pm central) and the following orbit, it will cross over Texas beginning at 04:46:11 UTC (11:46 pm central). It would be south of DFW at 04:47:42 UTC (11:47 pm central) and Washington DC at 04:52 UTC (11:52 pm central).

The latest estimate is 9:04 Central at that time it should be over Africa, Saudi Arabia and Turkmenistan.

They pushed back the time by an hour, so more danger to Florida, we'll know one way or other soon.
