GZ Cnc: still very active, urgent observation requested
Dear Colleagues,
We have received the attached reports from Arto Oksanen. Could someone
start observing just now? The star looks very rich in flare-like events!
Regards,

GZ Cnc has just (02:15-02:30 UT) brightened 0.5 magnitudes! I planned
to stop by now, but I will fillow the star a bit longer to see what it
is up to. :)
===
the rapid brightening turned as rapid fading. It looks now like a very
large amplitude (0.5 mag) and short duration (30 minutes) flare or something.
There seem to be no clear pattern in my 6+ hour light curve.
===
Fading turned into another rapid rise.
The star is hitting treeline any moment now. Hopefully someone is
continuing from now on!
