Hey this happens to me! Something in my ear just twitches for only a second or two and I hear a vibrating sound. It happens randomly and doesn't seem to be triggered by anything. It's also pretty rare. Maybe a couple times a month. I never thought that it sounded like thunder though and so didn't make the connection. This sounds (Haha. See what I did there?) like the most plausible explanation yet.
Ears are a pretty vague and complex system with weird acoustics that the brain usually filters out. Tinnitus can happen if the brain fails to filter out some change in the acoustics caused by damage or fatigue or who knows what.
But both a rumble and white flashes sound a lot like pain reactions. Maybe caused by sudden tensing. Brain just makes these weird sensations when it encounters odd inputs and they might be hard to describe.
Cold chills and hot burning blush and shudders and all kinds of funny little things often happen because of weirdest reasons.
I think everyone experiences this every once in a while, but usually forgets about it. I think it's because the education is limited so it's hard to explain and normally it's not severe so you tend not to think about it.
