Heat. Hot as Hades. Those describe summer to a T, but they can also describe May. According to the calendar, it’s still spring, but there’s no denying that the days are getting hotter. Air conditioners are getting a workout, and those who don’t have to wait until Memorial Day weekend before the pool opens are taking full advantage. Lately, it appears that as the thermometer readings go up, things are heating up for Lotto Texas and Powerball as well.
Since the beginning of May, Lotto Texas has been in the grips of a Pattern streak. For four nights in a row, the {3-2-1} Pattern has stuck around and fueled the rise of the Lotto Texas jackpot. On May 14, 2022, this Pattern came back once more and once more, the jackpot rose, settling at $14.5 million when all was said and done. As for Powerball, a streak wasn’t needed to set the jackpot there to $90 million.
