It's been in the 30s. The sound is identical to a small car when it's backing up. The faster you go the louder it gets.
I guess it's time to just take it in.
Thanks again for all the posts

did you ever find out what the whine was? Mine seems to have just started having the same problem. I asked about it being the alternator bearing and was disagreed with because it only makes the noise during acceleration.

you can also use a long handled screwdriver as an engine "stethescope" to check for odd sounds. place the end of the screwdriver on the suspect engine part while the motor is running and the other end up to your ear. you can pinpoint some bearing failures this way
