whining in third and fourth gear

[rep1158]

This whining, twisty, howling noise is coming from middle of the car from what I can hear. The noise increases with speed. does not exist at idle. Some days its very loud other days you can barely hear it.
any thoughts ??

Does it change with how long the car is driven? If you go on a long, at least 15 min, highway trip is it the same noise before and after?

If it does vary with how long the car is driven it might be a wheel bearing, very unlikely but still possible.
