I have never had issues with wipers in the winter until now too. Today, I had a 90-minute commute in moderate snowfall, and temps between 14-20°F. Wipers were streaking a lot at first, but then slush, snow, and ice started collecting on, and clinging to the wipers. At that point, the wipers were streaking and leaving chunks behind.
I'm kinda a little surprised that the winter package didn't include heating elements for the wiper blades.
Oh, and for the first time, I had issues with my rear window. Slush and snow collected on the rear window during the drive, and I wasn't moving fast enough for them to blow off. So they collected between the heating wires and blocked ~60% of my view. Once I got going tho, the slush and ice blew off almost immediately.
