L. Page (U. Leicester) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 230618A 137 s after the BAT trigger (Page et al., GCN Circ. 33989). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GRB_Auto_Processing *** 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 137 287 147 >20.5 u_FC 296 546 246 >19.9 white 137 1539 392 >20.8 v 626 1589 117 >19.1 b 552 1515 97 >20.4 u 296 1317 285 >20.0 w1 675 5178 161 >19.3 m2 4909 5108 197 >19.5 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.025 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
