LAT Limit on M87 during TeV Flare

Following the announcement by the MAGIC team of a TeV flare from M87, http://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=2431, we have checked the LAT data for the same time period. The 95% confidence upper limit for E>100 MeV for one day of observation is 1.3 e-7 ph/cm2/s assuming a photon index Gamma=2.26 which was the average for the first 10 months of the mission.
