I have heard that whine as well.

Also noticed it when in the garage

Like a high pitched dentist drill in the distance.

I think its normal and perhaps part of the vacuum or induction system sounds?

I don't think I ever noticed it during the warmer weather.

I can attest to the whine. It is the normal whir of the belt driven accessories. I have heard it in my car, and many a friend's car. Now, if there is another whine you are speaking about that occurred just after the water pump was installed, you may want to look into that.
