Strong ticket sales increased the Powerball jackpot to $450 million, according to lottery officials.


New York is one of 44 Powerball states. The NY lottery reported a spike in ticket sales for Wednesday's drawing.


Millions of new tickets were sold across the country when Saturday's drawing failed to produce a grand prize winner.


You can watch Wednesday's live drawing on Fox 40 at 11 p.m.

Fox 40 is now the Southern Tier's exclusive TV station for the NY lottery.
