Universe today is reporting that a new nova, possible supernova in Dephinius is at Mag 6.8. I looked and confirm a measurement using variable stars at 6.0. Here is the link to the article and it includes findercharts.

Here is an animation showing it. Found at day 1 at mag. 6.8, now at 6.0 it should continue to brighten. Here's hoping we may have a SN naked eye! Cool though even if it is a Nova.
