We've had more fireblight here in mid-Missouri this year than I can remember for the last 5 at least.  While the weather has been a problem, I think that, at least in my trees, a lot of it represents initial infections we had last year.  While we've tried to prune out what we could, I noticed small strikes on both pears and a few more susceptible apples (Spitzenburg) last year.  I think that those we may have missed have served as a source for more infection this year.
