How to play the Powerball
To play the Powerball, you have to buy a ticket for $2. You can do this at a variety of locations, including your local convenience store, gas station, or even grocery store. In some states, Powerball tickets can be bought online.
Once you have your ticket, you need to pick six numbers. Five of them will be white balls with numbers from 1 to 69. The red Powerball ranges from 1 to 26. People can also add a 'Power Play' for $1, which increases the winning for all non-jackpot prizes.
The 'Power Play' multiplier can multiply winnings by: 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X.
If you are feeling unlucky or want the computer to do the work for you, the 'Quick Pick' option is available, where computer-generated numbers will be printed on a Powerball ticket. To win the jackpot, players must match all five white balls in any order and the red Powerball.
Powerball drawings are held on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights. If no one wins the jackpot, the cash prize will continue to tick up.

Friday the 13th: A look back at $1.35 billion Mega Millions lottery win on the 'unlucky' date
If you're feeling lucky − or brave − there's a major lottery drawing on Friday the 13th. Though the number 13 typically is considered unlucky, that date and/or number has made someone a lottery winner before (see below). If a $5 Mega Millions ticket makes you a multimillionaire on Friday, June 13, you'll likely agree with that familiar lottery phrase, 'it could happen to you.' After no one matched all five numbers plus the Mega Ball in the Tuesday, June 10, Mega Millions drawing, the jackpot jumped $21 million overnight. The next chance to win happens to fall on what some may consider an unlucky date − Friday the 13th − for a cool $264 million prize. The cash option for the Friday, June 13, Mega Millions drawing would be $117.3 million, according to Mega Millions online. Interestingly, Friday the 13th kicks off a busy holiday weekend − Flag Day is Saturday, June 14, and Father's Day is Sunday, June 15. Below are times in history that the number 13 or Friday the 13th made someone a big lottery winner. According to a check on Powerball's site and a robust internet search, the Oct. 31, 2022, drawing was likely the first time the number 13 appeared twice in a Powerball drawing — on Halloween — for a $1 billion jackpot. Largely considered an unlucky number, spooky even, the fact that 13 was pulled twice in a big lottery drawing on Oct. 31 is a fun fact itself. However, no one was lucky enough to win that grand prize. Until ... Strangely, a few days after the Oct. 31, 2022, "number 13" Powerball drawing, something odd occurred − again. On Nov. 2, 2022, the Powerball drawing had an interesting numerical occurrence: The date of the drawing was 11/2/22, the jackpot was for $1.2 billion, and three of the winning numbers contained the date (11, 2 and 22). Coincidence? You be the judge. ▶ If you have a fear of the number 13 AND Halloween, check out this wacky Powerball story. ▶ One, two, too ... That one time the Powerball winning numbers had a lot of ones and twos. Yes! A single ticket was purchased in Maine for the Jan. 13, 2023, Mega Millions drawing. The winner remains anonymous through a trust and accepted their winnings of $1.35 billion through the limited liability company LaKoma Island Investments LLC, according to a Feb. 22, 2023, story in USA TODAY. Jan. 13, 2023, was Friday the 13th. The number 13 typically is referred to as an unlucky number, and it's associated with horror films. Fun fact: Three tickets purchased in California, Florida and Tennessee won the Jan. 13, 2016, Powerball drawing, splitting $1.586 billion. In 2016, FLORIDA TODAY reported Maureen Smith and David Kaltschmidt bought their winning Powerball ticket at a Publix in Melbourne Beach. While Jan. 13, 2023, was a Friday the 13th, Jan. 13, 2016, was not (it was a Wednesday). The odds of a billion-dollar jackpot being won on the same date going forward? Likely pretty low.

More than 200 feared dead after plane crashes outside airport in Indian city of Ahmedabad
More than 200 people are feared to have died after a plane bound for London crashed into a residential area shortly after taking off from an airport in India's western city of Ahmedabad. Images from the scene showed thick black smoke rising up into the sky after the Air India plane crashed, with part of the aircraft pictured resting on top of a building. Other images showed scorched trees and a fire-blackened building with first responders hosing down the area. The city police commissioner told The Associated Press (AP) that were thought to be no survivors from the crashed plane, which was carrying 242 passengers and crew members. CNN is working to independently confirm the report. 'It appears there are no survivors in the plane crash,' Commissioner G.S. Malik said, adding that, with the aircraft crashing in a residential area with offices, 'some locals would have also died.' 'Exact figures on casualties are being ascertained,' he said, according to the AP. A senior police officer told reporters that the plane had hit a doctors' hostel, according to Reuters. Air India said in a statement that of the 242 people on board, 169 were Indian nationals and 53 were British nationals. There were also seven Portuguese nationals and one Canadian national, the airline added. The flight, AI171, was bound for London's Gatwick Airport, where it was due to land at 6.25 p.m. local time (1.25 p.m. ET). A reception center has been set up at the airport to provide information and support to relatives of victims. One video captured the moment the aircraft, gaining altitude after just taking off, suddenly began to descend in mid air, before crashing down in a huge plume of fire and smoke. The plane made a Mayday call to Air Traffic Control shortly after takeoff, according to India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). 'But thereafter no response was given by the aircraft to the calls made by ATC. Aircraft immediately after departure from Runway 23, fell on ground outside the airport perimeter. Heavy black smoke was seen coming from the accident site,' the statement said. According to the DCGA statement, the flight departed at 1.39 p.m. local time (4.09 a.m. ET). The aircraft's signal was lost less than a minute after takeoff, at an altitude of 625 feet, according to FlightRadar24 data. The plane then started to descend with a vertical speed of -475 feet per minute, the data showed. All flights out of Ahmedabad's Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport were suspended following the incident. However, they have since resumed at a limited capacity, the airport said in a post on X. India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the plane crash had 'stunned and saddened' the country. He described the incident as 'heartbreaking beyond words,' adding that he was in touch with the authorities involved in the disaster. Natarajan Chandrasekaran, the chairman of Air India, said that Air India Flight AI171 had been involved in a 'tragic accident.' He added, 'We are doing everything in our power to assist the emergency response teams at the site and to provide all necessary support and care to those impacted.' British Prime Minister Keir Starmer described the scenes as 'devastating,' and said he is 'being kept updated as the situation develops.' He added that his 'thoughts are with the passengers and their families at this deeply distressing time.' Meanwhile British Foreign Secretary David Lammy told the UK House of Commons: 'This morning, we know that British nationals were on board. And Mr. Speaker, I can confirm that the (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) is working urgently with local authorities to support British nationals and their families, and has stood up a crisis team in both Delhi and in London.' The UK's King Charles said he and Queen Camilla are 'desperately shocked' by the 'terrible events' in Ahmedabad. He also paid tribute to the 'heroic efforts' of the emergency services and all those 'providing help and support at this most heartbreaking and traumatic time.' The UK and India have strong cultural and historic ties and a complicated history dating back to Britain's colonial era. The UK has a large Indian diaspora – according to data from the British government, in 2021, 1.9 million people or 3.1% of the country's population identified as having Indian ethnicity. Thursday's crash marks the first involving a Boeing 787 Dreamliner since the aircraft first entered into service in 2011, according to Boeing's Statistical Summary of Commercial Jet Airplane Accidents. According to Boeing, there are over 1,175 Dreamliners in service, which account for 2,100 flights each day. Boeing issued a statement in wake of the crash, saying it is in contact with Air India and stands 'ready to support them.' 'Our thoughts are with the passengers, crew, first responders and all affected,' it added in an X post. This is a developing story and will be updated. CNN's Olivia Kemp contributed to this report.
