The Swift/BAT hard X-ray transient monitor reports an outburst of the supergiant fast X-ray transient IGR J17544-2619. The source was first detected at 0.043 +/- 0.008 cts/cm^2/sec (190 mcrab) in a 408-sec observation in the 15-50 keV energy range, beginning at 1:31:04 UT on Nov. 8, 2007 (MJD 54412). It continued to be observed above 100 mcrab over the next several hours and was seen at ~165 mcrab at 6:07:11 UT.
