Dry climate here too and if anything is parked in a barn or shed it's to keep the sun off of it here. We call it dry rot from dry climate and sun eating up our tires. Candles are still the #1 cause of home fires right along with human negligence. Drunks should not light candles before getting snockered at home. Most causes we see on barn/shop were spontaneous combustion caused by human negligence or lightning or trash burning next to shop/barn. Equipment failures, heater failures and electrical building failures fall in there too but seem to be lesser causes. Most hay fires we have seen were caused by spontaneous combustion, exhaust sparks, cigarettes, lightning or hot wire fence. Hot wire fences can carry lightning a long ways to the hay stack too. Fence wire will be gone and carbonized laying on ground or hay.
