I am no Husky expert but know a little about the breed.  Huskies howl, just part of their behavior.  Add to that, if you have more than one (a pack) if one starts the others will likely follow.  They often communicate this way and they may be seeing or smelling something you are not aware of.
Are these strictly outside dogs?
This is really a breed that needs activity.  I suggest you give them some good physical exercise once or twice a day, long walks/runs, vigorous play in the yard, etc.
Do not respond or cater to them if they are howling or they will quickly figure out that gets them attention.  When they are quiet, praise and interact with them.
Just suggestions and Huskies do howl.  :-)
