UPDATE: The winning numbers are: 5, 21, 57, 66, 69 and the Powerball is 13 with 3X Powerplay.
ORIGINAL STORY: The Powerball jackpot keeps growing. The total is $375 million for tonight's drawing.
That's among the 20 largest jackpots in U.S. lottery history, according to NJ.com.
No one has won the big prize since April 1, when someone in Arizona who remained anonymous cashed in to the tune of $60 million, officials said.
For novices who are tempted to get involved, here’s how: At a participating retailer, choose five numbers from 1 to 69 and a Powerball number from 1 to 26. Or you can select Quik Pik, in which the machine picks the numbers for you. Each play costs $2.
According to the Georgia Lottery website, the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot with a given pick are 1 in 292,201,338.
Tonight’s drawing is at 10:59 p.m. on Channel 2 Action News.
