Big Money Powerball Winner In New York State?

Don't look now, but Christmas is only four months away! The countdown to the big day is on and many are already trying to grab good deals on holiday gifts! Need some help? Maybe you will win the next Powerball jackpot!

There was no winner on Wednesday and the next Powerball drawing will take place on Saturday and will be worth at least $345 million with the cash option of $165 million.

Occasionally, there are some secondary winners with both the Mega Millions and Powerball drawings. However, this latest drawing offered no cash to anyone as there were no numbers matched.

The back-to-school crunch is on as we are seeing the last few days of the summer fade away. The New York State Fair is also underway in Syracuse and there are still some amazing events in New York State before the fall officially arrives.

Look for the New York Lottery at this year's New York State Fair.
