Powerball Winning Number Results for Jan 8, Check to See If You Won $70 Million

It might be cold outside but the Powerball lottery is heating up. The new numbers have been drawn for Wednesday January 8. Check the results below to see if you won $70 million.

The winning Powerball lottery numbers are: 10 28 39 47 58 PB 22

$70 million is a lot of money, just ask Kansas City's Kevin Carlson. Carlson recently won that much as the Powerball website reports:

“A Kansas City couple undoubtedly had their best Christmas ever after finding out they won the $71.5 million Powerball jackpot, the sixth-largest Lottery prize ever sold in Missouri. Kevin Carlson, 49, and his wife claimed the prize at the Lottery's Jefferson City headquarters on Dec. 26. Carlson also celebrated his birthday on Dec. 27, one day after discovering the win.

"Carlson, a mechanic, said he bought Missouri Lottery tickets often when he made his usual stop at Autobahn BP, 7538 N.W. Prairie View Road in Platte Woods. ‘Every morning that I work, I stop to get a coffee and a little something to eat,’ said Carlson."
On Dec. 26, he stopped by the convenience store and discovered he held the only winning ticket from the Christmas Day Powerball drawing, which was worth $71.5 million:

"‘The first time I scanned it, I didn't believe it, so I scanned it again,’ he said. ‘I kind of went nuts.’

“Carlson said he already quit his job as a mechanic, but his wife plans to continue working.

"Now that I don't work, I plan to use my time to figure out what to do with the money, he added.”

Check back in tomorrow for a special preview of Saturday’s drawing, as well as tonight's winning results. If you are lucky, you might just see your name and story on here...well...probably not cause you will be too busy spending money like crazy.

Best of luck to you, and be sure to stay warm.
