CNEOS predicts that the newly discovered NEO 2023 HO18 will make a close approach on 2023-Jun-04 17:44±00:06 UT at a distance of 0.00312 AU, V Relative=4.65 km/sec, H=25.1 magnitude, diameter 25 m - 56 m, 'Rarity'=1. Condition Code=7, 35 day observation arc, Earth MOID=0.0030763 AU. This object was first reported observation by Mt. Lemmon Survey on 2023-04-22.
Here's the ST4v Object Info dialog for this NEO:
This object is best viewed from the southern hemisphere during close approach, but it is bright enough to be visible on the mornings of June 3 & 4 in the northern hemisphere as well.
Hopefully the orbit will be refined further in the next few days.
Good hunting,
