Grind on start?

Back story: Car has 62k miles, 0 problems ever.

Yesterday: Topped off oil yesterday (Mobil 1), drove 300 miles at 80+ in wet 35 degree weather with no issues.

Today: 43 degrees, hop in the car, start her up, and hear a nasty squeal/grinding from the engine bay right after letting off the starter button. No, it wasn't holding the starter too long. Turn her off, try again, same thing. Turn her off, try again, back to normal.

Anyone experience anything like this? It was nothing I've ever heard before and it really didn't sound healthy.
