Swift has continued to monitor the evolution of the type Ia SN2011fe since its discovery (Atel #3581) providing the best sampled UV light-curve of a type Ia SN at very early times, ever. Compared to the first epoch of Swift-UVOT observations (Atel #3590) the SN has brightened of ~4.5 mag, ~5 mag and ~6 mag in the uvm2, uvw2 and uvw1 filter, respectively. Assuming August 23rd to be the date of the SN explosion, SN2011fe reached an observed peak magnitude of ~10.9 in the uvw1 band at day 16th.
