As far as I'm aware modern nuclear weapons maximize immediate destructive capabilities and minimize secondary effects like radiation. Furthermore the target for the attack was in the sky, limiting the spread of radiation to the North America. The global effects would be limited to a minor temperature increase and slightly accelerated icecaps melting. However, due to the emergence of new technologies that don't rely on fossil fuel, even that change would be minimal. Please take note that we are talking about an accidental destruction of an entire continent, not just a few cities, few nukes would hardly be enough to cause such devastation.
