EDIT: Solved! Locust NC (9 miles from where I live) had a fireworks show that started at 10:00pm at the City Hall

I live near Zion Church road, this started at around 9:55 pm and ended around 10:08 PM, the noise happened at random intervals about five seconds apart on average, the last noise it made (the second clip) was much longer and sounded a lot more like typical thunder. I‘ve never heard such rhythmic-ish thumping from a storm before while it was passing away from us, there are storm clouds in the same direction of the noise that were occasionally flashing lightning. Has anyone else heard this noise?

Best heard with headphones on.
