No attic. Vaulted ceilings with T&G and clay tile roof on top of that.

Is the pitch on the inside the same as the pitch on the outside?

Pay attention to wind speed and direction when you hear this.

OK, I'm out of ideas.
Just before dark go out and hose the roof down good and report back. Or wait for a rainy day and report back.
Like everyone else I’m mostly out of ideas but sometime you have to add a variable to the problem to get more data.

I'll hose it down tonight.
I keep thinking it's a temperature thing with the tongue and groove?

That sounds about right, the noise is in the wood, it sounds like the T&G shifting when it happens. It starts with a creak or two and then that sets it off and the noise goes from one side of the room to the other. It gets so loud that it wakes me up at night.
Now my new question is how can I stop it or slow it down?

No he has been busy on real jobs.

Are you sure? That is what it looks like but that can be deceiving. Take a photo of the soffet unless it it the same look.

Yup, stupid sun.
I didn't get any pics but I did dig around a bit. My roof is 1" T&G with 4" of foam insulation then ply and paper then tiles. I'm 99% sure on this.
