Just a thought, based on no experience (my Honda is not an Odyssey)
Has anyone tried those deflectors that mount on the forward upper edge
of the windows?
( http://www.autoanything.com/deflectors/10A10002.aspx ) I have no
idea if they work at all, much less as a possible solution to this

As everyone else has said, its a normal thing...I found out my 92
Accord does it REALLY bad with a back window open at 60 mph...I had to
slow down, the noise was so intense it was almost painful!
