The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 17:51:24 UT on 31 Oct 2020, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 201031B (trigger 625859489.53606 / 201031744).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 44.2, Dec = 54.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 02h 56m, 54d 53'), with a statistical uncertainty of 4.0 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 16.0 degrees.

B. Biltzinger, F. Kunzweiler, F. Berlato, J. Burgess & J. Greiner (all MPE Garching) report:
The public trigdat data of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) trigger
625859489 at 17:51:24 on 31 Oct. 2020 were automatically fitted for spectrum
and sky location with BALROG (Burgess et al. 2018, MNRAS 476, 1427;
Berlato et al. 2019, ApJ 873, 60).
The best-fit position (1 sigma statistical errors) is:
RA(2000.0) = 47.9+/-6.1 deg
Decl.(2000.0) = 42.0+/-6.2 deg
We estimate an additional systematic error of 1 deg.
