What the archive shows
Powerball white ball 27 is tracked here on the current matrix: 5 white balls from 1 through 69 and a Powerball from 1 through 26, from October 7, 2015 through November 11, 2026. Drawings outside that window are in the full NY Open Data file, and they are reported separately because they used a different field.
In these 1,432 drawings it appeared 118 times. That is 14.2 appearances above the even-split count of 103.8. An even split gives every white ball the same share of those drawings, because five white balls are drawn from the field each time. The median count in this pool of 69 is 102.0. Powerball white ball 27 ranks 8th, tied with 1 other number.
The last appearance was August 15, 2026, which is 38 drawings ago. That gap ranks 2nd longest in the pool, tied with 1 other number. The longest miss lasted 62 drawings, after March 22, 2017 and before it returned on October 28, 2017.
The appearance before the latest one was August 1, 2026, 6 drawings earlier. Across every pair of successive hits, the average distance is 11.9 drawings, and that average includes the drawing that brought the number back.
Among complete calendar years in this set (2016–2025), 2023 and 2024 each had the most appearances, 17. 2017 had the fewest, 3. In the latest 100 drawings of this set it appeared 5 times, and in the latest 25 it appeared 0 times. Those windows are a recent stretch of drawings already held.
The most recent line was August 15, 2026: white balls 5, 8, 27, 29, 63, and Powerball 13, multiplier 2×.
When Powerball white ball 27 was drawn, the other white balls beside it most often were white ball 8 (14 times), white ball 44 (13 times), and white ball 18 (12 times). A pair that leads this list is a pair that happened. The next drawing still takes five white balls from the full field.
The Powerball values in those same drawings were led by Powerball 9 (11 times), Powerball 7 (7 times), and Powerball 4 (6 times).
The neighboring white balls in this same set: white ball 26 (84 appearances) and white ball 28 (121 appearances). Neighbors are next to each other on the number line only. They are separate balls in the machine.
The full file holds 2,024 drawings and records 161 appearances of Powerball white ball 27. The earliest of them is February 20, 2010. The full-file count mixes older matrices, so it is the wrong denominator for a current-game rate. Use the matrix count above for that comparison.
A gap of 38 drawings leaves the odds unchanged. Each Powerball white ball has a 5-in-69 chance on the next drawing. The hot, cold, and overdue guide and the odds guide explain that at more length. This page is a record of the archive fetched November 12, 2026.
