The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB

At 18:54:56 UT on 14 Aug 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230814A (trigger 713732101.037422 / 230814788).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 288.8, Dec = -14.2 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 19h 15m, -14d 11'), with a statistical uncertainty of 4.0 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 100.0 degrees.
