M. H. Siegel (PSU) and A. D'Ai (INAF-IASFPA)
report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team:

The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 251011B 107 s after the BAT trigger (D'Ai et al., GCN Circ. 42197). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position (Evans et al., GCN Circ. 42201) is detected in the initial UVOT exposures. Preliminary 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system (Breeveld et al. 2011, AIP Conf. Proc. 1358, 373) for the first
finding chart (FC) exposure and subsequent exposures are:

Filter         T_start(s)   T_stop(s)      Exp(s)         Mag

white_FC           107          257          147         >20.9
white              107          257          147         >20.9
u                  320          463          141         >20.4

The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction
due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.017 in the direction of the burst
(Schlegel et al. 1998).
