Looks to be about magnitude 4.8 right now, nearly the same brightness as 29 Vulpeculae. If you're familiar with Delphinus and Sagitta, it's actually pretty easy to find, and it couldn't be more convenient for evening observing in the northern hemisphere. But this is below the peak brightness reported twelve hours ago, so it looks like that's it. It's all downhill from here, unless something unusual happens.
