Swift obtained simultaneous X-ray and UV observations of the recent ONe nova CSS081007:030559+054715 (ATEL #1825, ATEL #1835) on November 10 and 14, 2008. The ~ 4 ks observation revealed a strong and variable source in both the XRT and UVOT detectors. The average X-ray count rate was 0.183+/-0.009 counts/s while the UVW2 band (lambda_c ~ 1928 Angstroms) was 15.1+/-0.1 mag. The source is very soft in the X-ray spectrum with most photons below 0.6 keV.
