James,

This sounds like a typical syptom of the anacana  sydrome---

It's making this noise anacana, you haven't driven it all winter, and
it's letting you know it's pissed----

Sounds like an overly aggresive fuel pump whine, or possibly the
alternater bearing, or maybe you just have the radio volume down so low
you can't hear it--and your just hearing the static from the radio---

In this case turn it up and you won't hear the whine, and your problem's
are solved-----:>)
