H. Siegel (PSU) report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team: The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 240418A 126 s after the BAT trigger (Siegel et al., GCN Circ. 36162). No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT position *** POSITION REFERENCE is GCN_Circulars-36166 *** 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 126 276 147 >20.6 u_FC 284 533 246 >19.6 white 126 5282 347 >20.9 v 4072 4272 197 >19.9 b 539 5093 216 >19.9 u 284 4888 442 >20.1 w1 4482 4682 197 >19.9 m2 4276 4476 197 >20.1 The magnitudes in the table are not corrected for the Galactic extinction due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.057 in the direction of the burst (Schlegel et al. 1998).
