Wind noise from both front windows
You can either try adjusting the window slightly so that it closes "tighter" against the seals or, being car is 14-years-old, replace the seal(s).
Window Adjustment while not specifically for "wind noise" the same premise applies. Also, the GW (Glass & Window) section of the factory manual has detailed instructions to adjust the windows.
Can you narrow down where along the window the noise is more prevalent? ie. corner/ mirror area, top edge, rear pillar, etc.?

I fought this with my passenger window for quite a while... I tried resetting the window position when closed, over and over, but it never totally solved the problem (you can only have it close a certain distance up before it hits the body when you open the door.)
What I found... The rubber seal at the front of the window can go bad. This is the triangle area where the mirror is. Mine had a little tear (roughly 3/8") that let in noise during normal driving and was quite loud on the highway with a cross-wind. I looked at replacement parts and they were expensive, and it was also quite a bit of work. What I ended up doing was using a small piece of black electrical tape, installed so it covered the small tear at the top of the seal while keeping the window snug. While not a forever solution, it's been holding strong for about 4 years. This also fixed the issue of water dripping down the front of the passenger window when pressure-washing the car.
