Bad Wheel Bearing?

What noises do wheel bearings do when they are on their way out? My car makes a squeeking noise from the front left wheel when I turn left. Only sometimes it does this and only when the brakes are already warmed up. Im hoping its not a wheel bearing but just the brakes rubbing when I turn.

Most likely sounds like the brake pads sqeaking or moaning on you. A wheel bearing will squeal very noticibly and percingly like a squeal howl and is NOT intemittent
