Powerball Jackpot Hits $1 Billion | Pittsburgh News
Description
Powerball just hit a jaw-dropping $1 billion jackpot—the eighth time in history it’s reached this insane level—and it’s the biggest U.S. lottery prize so far this year. With tickets flying off shelves and even international players joining in, anticipation is sky-high ahead of Wednesday’s drawing. Winners can take home over $433 million before taxes, either as a lump sum or a 29-year annuity. The last winner was back in May 2026, and while the record still stands at $2.04 billion (won in November 2022), this current jackpot is the largest since December 2025. Available in 45 states plus territories, with draws every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday—your luck might be just one ticket away.
