Powerball Jackpot Rolls Over as No Winner Emerges
24 Aug
Summary
- Powerball jackpot reaches estimated $643 million
- No winner in Wednesday's drawing
- Next Powerball drawing scheduled for Saturday
As of August 24th, 2025, the Powerball lottery jackpot has continued to grow after no one claimed the top prize in the most recent drawing. The estimated jackpot for the Wednesday, August 20th drawing had reached a staggering $643 million, with a cash option of $290.6 million.
The winning numbers drawn on that fateful night were 31, 59, 62, 65, and 68, with the Powerball number 5. However, despite the high stakes, lottery officials confirmed that there were no jackpot winners. The Power Play number for the drawing was 2, which would have multiplied any non-jackpot prizes.
With the jackpot remaining unclaimed, the next Powerball drawing is scheduled for this Saturday, August 26th. Drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 PM Eastern Time, with ticket sales closing at 9:59 PM on the night of the draw in New Jersey.
Powerball tickets cost $2 to play, with an additional $1 per play for the Power Play feature, which can multiply non-jackpot prizes. All New Jersey Lottery retailers will redeem prizes up to $599.99, while larger prizes can be claimed by mail or in person at the New Jersey Lottery office.
