Wind noise near driver mirror

I have this annoying wind noise inside my 89, when I have the window rolled up and go past 40 mph. It's coming from near the driver side mirror. I slipped a piece of paper in and out, between the weather stripping and the door/glass, and feel a little less resistance pulling the paper out near the noisy area. I glued a 5" long piece of rubber cut from bicycle tube, along the weather stripping near the sound, to try to tighten up that area, but no change in the sound.

Does anyone have any ideas how to trouble shoot and reduce wind noise? I know there will always be some wind noise at speed, but the sound from near the mirror is much louder than the rest.

Anyone else experience this wind noise from near the mirror with the window rolled up? Is it just the aerodynamics of the car? Thanks.
