Default My windshield wiper doesn't sit flush with the windshield anymore...

After yesterdays ice crap storm, my drivers side windshield wiper doesn't sit flush on the wind screen anymore. The right hand side sticks up off the windshield, and therefore does not clear part of the windshield. I also cleared any ice away from there and the arm, but alas it still does not sit flush. Any suggestions on how to try to fix it? I'm going to try tomorrow and if I can't do it, then I'll just order aero wipers. But for the time being, I would refer to fix these. Any help on how to get it back to normal would be appreciated. TIA

I just retro-fitted the aeros today. Man, what a pain getting the old arms off.

Default its probably due to the cold weather, wiper may have stiffened up. My aero wipers do that in the

morning. After it warms up a bit with defrost to the windshield, it goes back to normal.
