Kevin,
I have also seen this on my Montmorency cherry. I don't know what it is,
but this tree has never really been in good health - and still isn't.
However, this year it has leafed out in a more normal way and there is a
small production on its way. On the worst years, the flowering was very
erratical, a few flowers opening at normal flowering period, and others
being very delayed. During those years, the tree eventually put out a few
leaves, but not much growth. I didn't use any treatment and it seems the
tree might recover by itself.
