Powerball drawings are subject to several security protocols

Powerball is back with another major jackpot up for grabs in tonight’s drawing. With no grand prize winner in the previous drawing, the Powerball jackpot now sits at an estimated $322 million for Oct. 1. Many jackpot winners choose to receive the cash value of their prize in a single payment. The lump sum cash value tonight would be $170.8 million, before withholding.

In the previous drawing, one lucky player hit the second-tier $1 million prize and had their winnings doubled thanks to the Power Play ticket option. The ticket, sold in Florida, matched all five white balls drawn but not the red Powerball. The $1 Power Play option multiplies all prizes other than the jackpot. The FL winner came away with $2 million before taxes.

Check tonight’s winning Powerball numbers below after the drawing at 11 p.m. ET.

PA ranks high in Powerball jackpot wins
