FIRST EVER VISUALLY DETECTED OUTBURST OF TU CRT?

TU CRATERIS (UGSU:)
Mar. 23.89 UT, (13.0 ; 24.908, 12.7
Sequence: GSC
Instrument: 203-mm SCT
Independent detection!
Some haze on Mar. 23. Somewhat better tonight. Apparently brightening
a little bit during 10 minutes of observation (superhump?).
High-speed photometry during this rare outburst is urgently required!
