Rumbling in Oceanside, NY 11572

Low rumbling like a large jet but low and it seems loud but when I pull out my decibal reader it says it is around 35-40db. There is no source it seems to generally remain in this range. I hear it more at night, especially when I'm laying in bed in silence or doing work in the quiet. Sometimes it is like short spurts of the noise or sometimes it is long and held out. I thought it was because we have heavy air traffic wear I live but I hear it even when there are not planes overhead and no one else can hear it. I'm very concerned. Will this noise affect my hearing? My hearing is very important to me since as I stated above I play violin.
