Drove Into a Snowbank

drove into a snow bank yesterday. hit the left front side of my car at about 20 MPH. surprisingly no damage to paint. in fact no damage that i can see at all. but for some reason the front end looks abit uneven to me now. all gaps look ok. the wheel well around the left front tire looks very slightly smaller than the right side in front of the tire. am i being paranoid or would i have noticed if major damage had been done? is there anything i should be looking for?

Ooopsie.. get that alignment redone asap - you may have some damage under the car too - no telling how unforgiving that snowbank was. If it's been melting and is icy it's like hitting a wall.
