Noise Under Hood when AC Turned on

Hey all

I got an '07 tsx w/38K miles.

I'm just wondering whether I should be concerned about noise coming from under the hood when I turn on the AC, or whether that's normal for any car (and like any AC, which makes noises). It especially gets louder when my car is stopped. Can't really describe the sound except it makes a blowing type of noise.

Looked around the internet and saw something about a compressor but quite frankly, I don't know what that is.

Should I be concerned or is the noise from the hood normal? My AC works just fine. I'm already having to resort to using AC with the 80 deg weather already. I'm assuming it's alright, but just want to make sure.

Thanks
