next time before you startup, get a can of WD-40 (yes, WD-40) and put the plastic wand on the can. open hood, squirt WD-40 on the power steering belt (drivers side easiest) and the AC belt (if yours is connected). Just a spritz on each, forward and back pass. then start and do your normal thing. If the noise goes away you either need to replace or tighten one of those two belts.
if noise still there, next day do again but this time hit the dual belts on the water pump/generator. easiest on the drivers side near the brake fluid res. again, start and do you normal thing. if noise goes away this time, same diagnosis, different belts.
let us know how it goes?
