Is it a screeching noise? If so, it's your serpentine belt. It's the noise it makes when it's old in the cold. You can get a lubricant spray to quiet it down but it's a better idea to replace the serpentine belt soon. Look for small cracks on the inside of the belt. If you can see them, it's a good idea to replace it soon.

Don't start the engine, put it in accessory mode. Increase the fan speed of your climate control. Do you hear the noise? If so, it could be the blower motor going bad. I replaced mine and the noise is gone.

The fans in the picture are your engine cooling fans that are mounted behind the radiator. The blower motor Triggerhappy is talking about is for your heater and air conditioner and is located behind your glove box.
Regardless, glad to see it get fixed.

Yes, I was asking him to test the blower motor behind the glove box to rule it out. Glad you got the noise fixed.
