The brightening can also be seen in the ZTF images.

I did not follow this star very closely rececently, as outbursts
seemed to occur rather frequently. And according to VSX it
is a confirmed SU UMa-type dwarf nova.

 YZ LMi outburst? (AM CVn+E)

  Normally at 19 mag.  There is a bright star (SAO61493)
to the north and the brightening needs to be confirmed.
