This is likely to occur if you live where the temperatures get kind of cold. You live in Ohio, and I know it's been pretty chilly there lately because I have relatives there. The seals in the doors, sunroofs, trunks, etc. that create a good clean seal get not so flexible in the cold and are much more likely not to conform to one another as well as they should. This, in turn, causes air to pass through the tiny cracks between the non-conform seals.

Sorry, suggestion to help it. Don't open your sunroof in the winter if you have one...and I guess no not really. Park in a garage, it will keep your car in a somewhat constant temperature that is somewhat warmer and will ehlp keep the seals softer.

i have a vert, so the seals around everywhere are always changing and i always get wind noise. Some things that help are opening and closing the windows after you have opened the doors. Especailly in the cold weather, do this once your car has had time to heat up. If all else fails and the wind noise is still there, turn up your stereo.
