stuck in 4wd

It snowed today about 2" the 4wd did it's thing and after the roads were salted I went back out and in a tight turn like in a parking lot the stering wheel felt verry tight like the 4wd didn't disengauge. this same thing happened last snow fall and after about 1000 miles it went back to normal. any ideas?
