A gamma-ray flux increase from the direction of the Crab Nebula was reported previously by the AGILE and LAT collaborations (ATEL #2855, #2861). We report that the Fermi LAT has been monitoring this source and has observed a flux enhancement during the interval 18-22 September. Measurements taken starting on 23 September are consistent with the typical flux of the Crab. The average total flux from this location (which includes the nebula and pulsed emission) above 100 MeV measured between 2010-09-23 00:00:00 and 2010-09-26 18:43:01 UTC was (280 +/- 20) x 10^-8 ph/cm2/sec.
