There is wear indicator that screeches when the pads are worn too low. If you have more than 50K miles on the originals, it may be time to replace them. A least pull into some shop and have them inspected. A good mechanic can look through the wheels and see the pad thickness without disassembly. I used to check them in the parking lot but some mechanics want to bring it in on the rack to guarantee they get the work.....$$$.

Rust, brake dust, cheap pads, worn pads and rotors, all make for noisy brakes, especially when adding moisture to the equation. My want to get it in to a shop and have your brakes looked at.
