As of today, I noticed the yellow spots on some of the tomato leaves. Last year we had a terrible problem with this fungus/blight (read the archives). The best thing to do is pick the infected leaves off. You can try taking a sample to one of the garden stores and see if they can diagnose better, or offer some "chemical" help. The stuff spreads wickedly and fast. It appears as a brownish spot, usually on the bottom leaves first, then starts yellowing. Soon all the leaves start turning brown and wilting.
I am sorry to say, the wind seems to blow it, so there is not much escape. Just try to pick off the infected leaves, and the sooner the better. It only takes a couple of days to spread like wildfire.
