Whoa!  V358 Lyr in outburst, it seems.  Found by Jeremy Shears.  The 
image Arne attaches in this note is at quiescence - it's deep and will 
help you find the object.  It was verified by Shawn Dvorak, so I guess 
it's real.  This star hasn't erupted in decades, as far as anyone knows.
It might not be a super - but it's so rare, stay on it as long as 
possible. Likely in clear light, at that mag (16.3).

Another find for the borealites. Great season for us northerners.

V358 Lyr in outburst, thus the need for confirmation. Cloudy conditions
at both my location and Gary's are preventing our confirmation.

This should help you in identifying the object. The VSX coordinates
and Downes coordinates are from the 2004 IBVS 5544 by Antipin et al.,
based on 2MASS coordinates. They indicate the coordinates are
accurate to about 0.5arcsec:
18:59:32.95 +42:24:12.2 J2000
The quiescent counterpart is at my plate limit. I notice that
the VSP chart has slightly different coordinates.
