MR UMa likely superoutburst

 According to Eddy Muyllaert, the UGSU type dwarf nova MR UMa is
undergoing a bright outburst, probably a superoutburst.
 This star undergoes superoutbursts at ~ 1 year intervals. It
is interesting that this star undergoes few normal outbursts.
Though this star has undergone 7 superoutbursts during 2002-2008,
only 1 or 2 normal outbursts were detected in the same period
of time.
