The Powerball jackpot has climbed to $250 million after no one matched the winning numbers in Saturday night's drawing. 

The next drawing in the multi-state lottery -- including Pennsylvania -- will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 21.

A standard Powerball wager costs $2, but players can select a "Power Play" option for an additional $1 when purchasing the ticket. Power Play increases the cash prize for any winning combination that isn't a jackpot.

The Powerball lottery is played in 42 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The absence of a winner Saturday increased the jackpot by $36 million.

A Lehigh Valley man bought a winning $1 million Pa. Lottery ticket in September and a $2 million Powerball ticket was sold at a local Wegmans last month.
