KS UMa in outburst

 The UGSU-type dwarf nova KS UMa is undergoing an outburst.
 Though it is uncertain whether this outburst is a superoutburst, we have an 
opportunity to observe the  halfway state considering the magnitude, 15.80V.
 Interestingly, the minimum of this star is declining moderately these days.
While the minimum mag. had been about 16 mag. until 2005, the minimum mag. is
 below 17 mag. This change may affect the behavior of the outburst.
