One lucky Southern Californian is the state’s newest millionaire after numbers for the Mega Millions jackpot were drawn Friday night.

The winning numbers were 6, 23, 41, 59, 63 and the Mega Ball number was 25. The Megaplier was 2X.

Although no winning ticket matched all six numbers to claim the $740 million jackpot, one SoCal winner matched five numbers and will take home $2,233,779. 

The winning ticket was sold at an ARCO ampm gas station located at 27900 Date Palm Drive in Cathedral City in Riverside County.

The current pot has been growing since a $552 million prize was won in Illinois in early June. The $740 million jackpot ranked as the seventh-largest in game history.

The jackpot will increase to an estimated $800 million for next Tuesday night’s drawing on Sept. 9.

Lottery officials confirmed there were 249,974 other winning tickets drawn on Friday, with prizes ranging from $2 to $10,931. 

The odds of winning a Mega Millions jackpot is about 1 in 302.6 million.

USA Mega, which tracks Mega Millions statistics, says the most common Mega Millions numbers are 10, 3, 17, 14 and 46 for the first five numbers. The most common Mega Ball number is 11.

Mega Millions is played in 45 states and the District of Columbia. Tickets are $2 and there are a total of nine ways to win a prize. Drawings are held every Tuesday and Friday at 8 p.m.

Pasadena Water and Power, the public energy and water utility that services the Pasadena region, implemented rolling outages late Friday afternoon due to excess heat.

With temperatures in the mid-100s, the utility was forced to institute the rolling outages due to equipment failures caused by the heat.

The outages began around 4:30 p.m. and were expected to remain in place for about an hour.

By 5:30 p.m., the temperature in Pasadena remained around 107 degrees, but was expected to begin to let up after sundown around 7:15 p.m.

Those affected by the outages were encouraged to follow the latest updates on the PWP outage map on the city’s website.

Beyond Pasadena, the California Independent System Operator, which manages the state’s energy grid, said the grid was stable and there was sufficient supplies to meet demands.

Southern California residents can expect to see some relief from the ongoing heatwave soon.

Communities throughout the Los Angeles region, like Burbank and Pasadena, saw triple-digit temperatures throughout the workweek.

Downtown L.A. and coastal communities, like Long Beach, also dealt with the heat with temperatures reaching the mid to high 90s.

 Still, some relief is coming, with meteorologists predicting that cooler temperatures will begin on Tuesday.

“After we get through this weekend, temperatures are expected to normalize a little bit,” KTLA’s weather anchor, Kirk Hawkins, said. “We will see temperatures still above normal by the time we get to Thursday.”

By Tuesday, temperatures in Orange County, San Fernando Valley and other areas are expected to drop from the triple-digit range to the mid- to high 90s.

Temperatures over the weekend are expected to drop only 2 to 3 degrees.

Whether you live in a desert community or closer to the beach, local officials urge residents to take precautions to stay safe as the heat wave continues.
