Help identify strange noise

First time I heard it,there were only a couple then not again in the next 100 mile when it did it 4 or 5 times. Over the next 300 miles,freqency and number of sound increased to every 10-15 miles for duration in attached video. From the first time until now,volume never varies and rythm has remained the same. MPH doesn't have a noticably effect and has never happened at idle. Not that I have connect the two, but I recently noticed that ac doesn't cool well while stopped at long traffic lights. Haven't noticed any performance difference.
I had trouble loading video to this post so it is in post #3 below.

Bump,,,,,,, Hoping someone can help,it got worse during the last 200 miles. I'm thinking it could be the fan. It usually start's after driving 15-20 miles. It's hot in Texas right now,would it be safe to unplug fan and drive a few miles after engine is at operating temperature?

During that tow,how were the % of fan speed and duration being monitored? If and when the problem was rectified,what was required to correct fan operation?
