I know the short answer is don't drive in the rain, but sometimes you take that 40% chance of rain. I have a problem with my wipers overextending when I drive.
If there's no rain, they tend to slide down below the windshield and rest on the rubber. If it's raining, the also tend to slide down below the windshield and rest on the rubber - and then they are stuck. Short story is I have nice paint touch ups where they've dug into the paint on each side.
I've tried adjusting these but can't seem to get it right. What's the trick? Also, what's the easy way to test adjustments - they dont move with a dry windshield. I've though about putting some soapy water on the windshield to help but haven't gotten to it yet.
