Every number was expected about that many times after 526 draws, and they scatter around it. Warm means more than expected, cool means fewer — and a cold number arriving is exactly what cold numbers do.

Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 5 numbers (3, 16, 26) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 13 June 2020 — its closest relative in 526 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 89% likelihood somewhere in that history.

The longest wait in this draw

26 had not appeared for 18 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.
