Default Belt noise on cold/rainy mornings?

Every so often during cold/rainy days, and usually lasting about 10-15 minutes after start-up I get a bit of annoying belt noise. I tried looking online but I was just trying to make sure I purchase the right belt if need be.

. Thanks in advance guys.

I could very well be wrong, but it does not sound like belt squeal, but rather the tensor pulley.

Definatly sounds like a bearing in a pulley to me. That chirp chirp sound is always a bearing. If it was a belt it would screech .

+1 ^^^

Just pull your belt off and give each driven assessory a spin by hand. That belt tensioner pulley will usually go first.
