Observations with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) All-Sky Monitor (ASM) of the soft X-ray transient Aquila X-1 reveal a recent increase in flux that indicates that an outburst is in progress. Recent daily average measurements with the RXTE ASM in the 2 - 12 keV energy range are: MJD 54351.318008, 0.9 +/- 0.5 cts/s; 54352.5, 3.4 +/- 0.2; 54353.4, 5.2 +/- 0.4; 54354.6, 7.1 +/- 0.4; 54355.3, 8.7 +/- 0.5; 54357.2, 13.1 +/- 0.4.
