Default Passenger window "losing position"?

With the recent cold/wet weather, I have been driving with the windows up and keep them closed when parked, so I don't really operate the windows especially the passenger-side one. Although I don't lower the passenger window, recently, every several days or so (I drive daily), I will hear wind noise at highway speeds from the passenger window. The issue goes away when i raise the window (it goes up a small amount). After the issued is cleared this way, a few days later, it will happen again. Feels like the window needs to be raised a little every few days, like it is losing its position or something.

Has anyone else observed this? I tried searching but couldn't find anything... Thanks.

It's possible that a 'reset' would help.
Raise window. Release. Hold raise for 10 seconds.
Lower window. Release. Hold lower for 10 seconds.

Thanks. Driver's window is fine, but passenger one may need reset... will try it today.
