So, uh, NASA was expecting this. They were going to have a livestream chat about this? Er, looks like they got the prediction slightly off. http://www.nasa.gov

A reasonable explanation would be that the event today was a chuck or asteroid as part of that expected fly by. The astroid is expected to be 17,000 miles away from Earth.
