Somewhat normal. You can replace the belts if worn, or install a 3.5" SC tensioner pulley to tighten things up.

A stretched or worn belt will frequently result in belt slip.

I think that's what Aaron was getting at.

I meant it's part of the physics behind a blower spinning 20k RPM and then being asked to stop instantly.

As long as I've had my car, when I floor it in 1st, then let off sharply at 5k RPM, it's going to slip a little, making a chirp. This gets even worse when belts are bad, but can happen even with fresh ones. Smaller SC pulleys also encourage this phenomenon.

When you're driving the car in an erratic fashion, some slip is "normal", imo. I wouldn't describe the noise as horrible, though. It's just a noise.

To Bill's point, since your engine has a stock SC pulley, the noise is probably the result of worn/stretched belts, but the reason for it happening is not surprising.
