If the upper estimate of the asteroid's size is true, the space rock would be almost double the height of the Empire State Building or nearly the same height as the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
At 2:46 a.m. UTC on April 28, or 10:46 p.m. EDT on April 27, the asteroid will come within around two million miles of our planet—a relatively close shave in astronomical terms, albeit one in which there is no risk of a collision with the Earth.
According to CNEOS, 2008 AG33 is estimated to measure between 330 meters and 740 meters in diameter based on its observable magnitude.
