Probably not late blight if the plants aren't turning black - http://www.longislandhort.cornell.edu/vegpath/photos/lateblight_tomato.htm
Plants need air as much as they need water. I suspect as you mentioned nutrients have leached out, and/or they just need to dry out and get some air to their roots.

I am in Ohio and my tomato plants are the worst looking I have ever had.
They looked great, then stopped growing pretty much. I thought maybe
starving because they are nearly drowning, or maybe some kind of weird
herbicide damage, then I thought blight. Don't have a clue. They too seem
to be setting the first cluster just fine, I've even had some normal ripe
ones but the crop as a whole will be a loss, I think.
