windshield wiper lost contact

i was cleaning the truck today and a piece of ice got stuck where the windshield wiper mount goes into the cowl area. i took the ice out but the wiper blade is now elevated about 1" from the windshield. nothing in the wiper mechanism looks bent and i tried fiddling with it and its staying elevated. it doesnt seem to be bent incorrectly and the linkage is all connected. anyone ever have this happen or have any idea? its the driver side wiper on 94 f150..

Check the little clip down where the arm connects at the cowl. Could be it was forced out or could be ice holding the arm up.
