Mark - we've noticed this problem in wet springs, only on one variety - Haralson. What variety is in your picture? It is significant this year, though there are still many usable fruits. We also had this issue in 2011, where it was wet through the growing season and didn't really dry out until the fall. This year, though, someone turned off the rain on July 1st, which seems to be the case in some parts. Other adjacent counties, though, have seen regular rain until a week or two ago.

since 6/25, but I have moved a sprinkler around the orchard from time to
time.
