Ah, so likely some of the air is getting through your "seal." If you can find a flat, not too dense (otherwise the window may not close at all) weatherstripping maybe you can adhere it to one side of where the window hits the other frame. They are usually sticky on one side but it's a good idea to staple it as well. Best do it on the frame not the window. Just for appearance sake.
