This was on AAVSO List......
There is a notice 'updating' this on the AAVSO website (Special Notice
#182) - appears it is not a nova but an outburst of a possible WZ
Sge-type cataclysmic variable previously unknown. It should have an
interesting (visual or CCD) light curve & is well worth watching (and
reporting) ...

If anyone was photoing the area (wide field) in the last few days, those
would be valuable images.
Clear skies
