Powerball in October 2026: every one of September's six coldest numbers came up
All six of September's coldest Powerball numbers came up in October's 13 draws, 9 times in total against 5.7 from chance alone. Number 13, still the least drawn number since October 7, 2015, came up 3 times, 51 twice, and 26, 46, 34 and 49 once each. September's six hottest managed 4 hits, two of them from 21, which now leads the long-run table alone with 128.
The draw of October 10 ended two long absences at once: 51 returned after 57 draws and number 1 after 56. On October 14, 34 came back after 54.
Over the ten months from January to October, the previous month's cold six have come up 51 times and the hot six 49, against 56.9 from chance alone for each. Neither label has carried over from one month to the next: draws are random, and a month like October is the kind chance produces from time to time.

Build a Powerball line around October 2026's three hottest numbers, 21, 61, and 64. The generator picks the rest — a fun way to choose, not a way to predict.
Each count is the number of times a number was drawn in the 1,427 Powerball draws from October 7, 2015 up to and including the draw of October 31, 2026. Hot numbers were drawn most often, cold numbers least often, and overdue numbers had gone the most draws without appearing, counted back from that draw.
These statistics count only draws played with the current Powerball numbers (1–69, Powerball 1–26): the 1,427 draws since October 7, 2015. Older draws used a different set of numbers, so counting them would make the newer numbers look colder than they are.
Lottery draws are independent random events: every number has the same chance in every draw, whatever it did in October. These rankings describe the past and do not predict the next draw. For today's ranking, see the live Powerball hot and cold numbers, updated after every draw.
