Harley, Sorry to hear about the loss of hay and building and glad no one was hurt but spontaneous combustion was first thing on my mind reading on down to here. Been a firefighter 14 years and seen it happen many times at dairies around here with a leaky roof on a hay barn or leaks under hay tarps letting it get wet and then when it warms up it goes. Most of them just stack the hay outside now or under big pole roofs and we still get hay fires. We have even had them light up in December when it warmed in the 80s but had wet weather right before that. The large cotton modules they put up now will light up from spontaneous combustion too when cotton is put up too wet or wet weather comes and then it gets warm. We always liked to stack our round bales in several different stacks away from things so lightning didn't get the whole stack. Hot wire fences are another bad thing around a hay stack. Good luck putting up the new hay.
