Default Weird nose coming behind dash/under hood when it rains

I don't even know how to accurately describe it. Sometimes, it sounds like a vibrating noise but mostly like a vacuum noise. I don't know. It only happens when I drive in the rain.

But it's very aggravating, especially the loud vibrating noise. That can't be good.

No. This is clearly coming behind the center of the dash, especially the vibrating/rattling noise. The vacuum noise is there while I'm parked, too.
