But it’s the Saturday, Aug. 23 Powerball jackpot that’s raising eyebrows, currently estimated at $700 million. That total likely will go higher before the drawing because of increased ticket sales. The Classic Lotto jackpot is $6.9 million for Saturday’s drawing.

Ohio had two $100,000 Powerball winners in Wednesday night's drawing. The tickets were sold at a convenience store in Willoughby, Ohio and a Kroger store in Sylvania, Ohio. Ahead of Wednesday's drawing, the grand prize was at an estimated $643 million, which was already the 13th largest prize in the history of Powerball.
