You will get an explosion when the meteor hits the atmosphere and vaporizes, but it is not going to be a very big explosion --- the Tunguska Blast was comparable in force to an atomic bomb --- that is quite a big wallop, and it remains unexplained.

We recently had a meteor do an air explosion over in Russia, it was a 
very small meteorite at about 65 feet in size, and exploded quite a ways 
up but it did a lot o damage from the air waves. It's yield was over 500 
Kilotons or 25 times more than the bomb at Hiroshima. One miles in 
diameter would be disastrous for the whole planet.
