Powerball winning numbers: Results for Wednesday, August 19 drawing for the $48 million jackpot

Powerball players will be watching closely on Wednesday, August 19, with an estimated $48 million jackpot available after nobody matched all six numbers in the previous drawing.

The jackpot carries an estimated cash value of $20.8 million for anyone who wins and chooses the one-time lump sum instead of the annuity option.

However, the winning numbers for Wednesday's drawing aren't available yet . Powerball drawings take place every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET, meaning the August 19 results will only be confirmed after tonight's draw.

The previous drawing on Monday, August 17 produced the numbers 8, 15, 25, 49 and 65, with Powerball 22. The Power Play multiplier was 4x.

What happened in the previous Powerball drawing?

Nobody won the jackpot on Monday, August 17, allowing the top prize to climb from an estimated $34 million to $48 million for Wednesday night.

One ticket sold in Florida matched all five white balls but missed the Powerball, earning the game's $1 million Match 5 prize.

The jackpot had recently reset after a $1.04 billion prize was won in Illinois on August 12, one of the largest Powerball jackpots in the game's history.

Wednesday's $48 million jackpot is therefore still in the early stages of another potential run.

Players should remember that ticket sales close before the drawing, with exact cutoff times varying by jurisdiction.

The August 19 winning numbers will be confirmed after the draw takes place at 10:59 p.m. ET. Until then, any numbers circulating online shouldn't be treated as official results.
