Overview

On Tuesday night, November 18, 2025, the Pick 3 draw in North Carolina marked a notable return: 011 reappeared in the draw after a 542-day drought.

A Long-Awaited Return

A gap of 542 days places 011 in the low-frequency tail of the distribution. The exact prior appearance date is not available in this view, but the duration alone signals an extended absence.

Combo Profile

Beyond the drought, the digits show a clean structure: 2 distinct digits with a repeated digit, spanning 0 to 1 (tight spread).

Why Droughts Matter

Extended gaps are best read as context, not forward-looking - they track where outcomes drift from baseline spacing. They provide a clean read on long-run variance.

Data Notes

This analysis uses the draw results recorded for Tuesday night, November 18, 2025 and compares them against the observed historical cadence for the game. This is descriptive, based on frequency tracking - not predictive modeling.

From Stepzero

Stepzero produces these reports to provide a calm, evidence-first record of how draw patterns unfold over time. The aim is clarity and continuity - a reference point for long-horizon tracking rather than a call to action.

Adding to the Long-Term Record

With its return, 011 contributes another meaningful data point to the historical dataset. Each draw - whether routine or statistically unusual - refines the long-term view of how large random systems behave over time.
