Question squealing bely

Sup people,
This is unusual. When it's warm and dry out, start ma car let it warm up no issues ok. But when there's heavy moisuture in the air like rain or snow my belt squeals like a pig, but after she warms up the noise would eventually die down and go away. This ever happen to anybody else, or anyone have any pointers on what to check. I am mechanicly inclined so i checked the obvious stuff, and nada, nothing zilch. I need help

Nah "kingaaron", I thought it was belt tension at first too, when it happened the first time and checked the belts, but like I said it only squeals like that when it's wet out. I could check the pulleys again "200.mph", but i dont know. I had an eclipse before that wore out a pulley...it squealed all the time though, till I sprayed some WD40 on the bearing. Worked suprisingly well.
HOWEVER, your inputs are appreciated still. If ya'll hear anythin let me know plz. I don't trust the dealers around my area that much
