RALEIGH -- A lot of money is on the line Wednesday as the multi-state Powerball jackpot has now topped $212 million. Saturday night marked the third time this year the jackpot went above $200 million.

If a North Carolinian wins it all Wednesday night, the $142.9 million lump sum prize would eclipse the largest prize ever awarded in the state's history.

You can check your Powerball numbers every Wednesday and Saturday. News 14 Carolina announces them every hour after 11 p.m. We also announce Mega Millions drawings on Tuesdays and Fridays.
