Things looked to be heating up in Mega Millions over the past few drawings. With a Pattern three-peat, and repeating Three-Number Combinations, it looked to be a scorcher. A change of course took place on January 26th. Compared to what we saw recently, Friday night’s drawing left us feeling a little cooler.

Three Number Combination(s)
A lack of repeating Three-Number Combinations is one way to chill things down.
Will Mega Millions end the month with a bang in Tuesday’s drawing?
