On a side note, when I flip my wipers on, the noise stops momentarily. But, it comes right back on once my wipers have made their slide across and back. Help!

The car is not under warranty anymore? It's probably just the fan motor. If the blower still works crawl under there, get to the fan and see if tapping on it makes it go away. It may or may not. My older 1998 had the same issue. Except, I bang on the dash it goes away. Hard to say with out looking at the car. I am just giving you a caveman solution. Oh, and obviously if it doesn't go away, and you can hear it distinctively coming from the motor, then it needs to be replaced.
There is normally a foam strip that goes around the vents. It is possible that its hanging down. It is also in between parts in the dash around the Evap housing.
