The crawl stats report within Google Search Console has a data gap again. This time the crawl stats report is missing August 15 and 16th crawl data. Normally, Google can fix the data but Google has not yet fixed it.
Here is a screenshot showing the missing data gap:
Lots of folks are noticing this and wondering what is going on:
On the Crawl Stats screen, the data displayed after 15 August is shown as 18 August. @rustybrick @JohnMu pic.twitter.com/JUDidZWhNY

FYI, two days are missing from the Crawl Stats reporting in GSC. August 15 and 16 are missing now. Just blank spaces remain. :) I'll ping Google about it now. pic.twitter.com/boT3LxFVMk

Is this me, or is anyone else also seeing a gap in the Crael State report in GSC? @rustybrick @JohnMu pic.twitter.com/2mlyy3jJdy

Like I said, this has happened numerous times before including November 2021, February 2022, May 2022, October 2025, and more.
Don't worry about it, I am sure Google crawled your site on those missing days but the report is a bit off right now.
Forum discussion at X.
Update: On Sunday, August 23rd, Google fixed the issue:
