I've had this happen in colder weather too mainly cause I never really use the passenger door. Usually if you let the interior heat up, it'll warm up the lock actuator enough to allow it to move. The problem is that moisture builds up in the actuator and freezes the unit enough that it won't fully return the latch or even unlock. It's a pain to deal with but applying a little heat to it will fix it for you, I used a heat gun on low setting. Like cheela suggested, put a little extra grease on stuff and that should help reduce the chance of it happening.
