Winning Powerball Numbers Here for Jan. 13, 2016

CONCORD, NH - Here are the winning numbers to the staggering $1.586 billion Powerball jackpot:

WINNING NUMBERS: 8, 27, 34, 4, 19 PB: 10 PP: 2

California lottery officials confirm that a winning ticket was sold in Chino Hills.

This is the largest, single-prize lottery jackpot in world history. It is so big that billboards around the country haven’t been able to advertise the actual figure because they don’t have enough room — the billboards are stuck at $999,999,999. The jackpot started at $40 million on Nov. 4.

As staggering as the jackpot is, the odds of winning, of course, are staggeringly slim: 1 in 292,201,338. Your chances of being struck by lightning in any given year are 1 in 700,000. Your odds of being wounded or killed by a firearm are 1 in 325.

In fact, you have a much better chance of dating a supermodel. And dying on a bicycle.

Your odds of dying on a bicycle, actually, are 1 in 4,472 (but those odds improve dramatically if you stay off bicycles). Your odds of drowning in the bathtub are 1 in 9,377. Your odds of dating a supermodel? 1 in 88,000. Odds of being bitten by a shark? 1 in 6,000,000.

Even if you don’t hit the jackpot, you can still win life-changing money. While no one won the record jackpot Saturday, nationally, 25 tickets won $1 million by matching five numbers, and three tickets won $2 million because they paid extra to multiply smaller prizes.

About 75 percent of the possible number combinations were covered for Saturday’s drawing. With the growing interest, more possible number combinations will likely be covered for Wednesday’s drawing. Officials expect that enough tickets will be sold to cover about 80 percent by Wednesday, so odds are someone will win. If not, the jackpot is expected to reach $2 billion.
