It's been a big year for snow in Denver. This extra snowy winter has already given Denver a new record and it's working on another.

The city just recorded another 2.6 inches of snow, which makes this winter the snowiest in 37 years, reports FOX31.

Denver has already recorded 80.2 inches while the city typically averages around 56.5 inches of snow each winter.

The only other winters that saw more snowfall were in the '80s.

According to FOX31, it snowed 80.9 inches during the winter of 1983-1984 and 81.6 inches in the winter of 1982-1983.
