No Winner in Powerball Drawing; Jackpots Top $350 Million

Both the Powerball and Mega Millions jackpots will be drawn again Friday night

The Mega Millions and Powerball jackpots are one step closer to crossing the $400-million threshold together after there was still no winning ticket in Wednesday night's Powerball drawing.

The top prize for the Powerball drawing was an estimated $307 million with winning numbers 12-30-36-47-62. The Powerball was 9 and the Power Play was 4.

The Powerball numbers will be drawn again Saturday night with an estimated prize of $356 million. The Mega Millions will be drawn again Friday night, with an estimated $382 million jackpot. That's the sixth-largest Mega Millions in history.

This is the first time both lotteries have topped $300 million at the same time, and now they are even closer to crossing $400 million together.

Regardless of the size of the jackpot, the odds of winning remain abysmal at one in 292.2 million for Powerball and one in 258.9 million for Mega Millions.

CORRECTION (Aug. 10, 2017, 7:34 a.m.): An earlier version of this story indicated the wrong day for the next Powerball drawing. It is Saturday.
