Colorado has four lucky weekend winners
The Powerball and Mega Millions jackpots continue to roll together!
The Powerball jackpot is at a staggering $900 million ($465.1 million cash value) for the next drawing on Monday, July 17, making it the 3rd largest Powerball jackpot and 7th largest U.S. lottery jackpot ever. The Mega Millions jackpot has climbed to an estimated $640 million ($328 million cash value) for the next drawing on Tuesday, July 18.
This is only the third time ever that both Powerball and Mega Millions have advertised jackpots above $500 million simultaneously.
