What happened to these tomatoes?

They looked fine before it rained last night

Hard to get a clear picture but there is some more (similar) damage in the shady parts.

If you're referring to those minor splits, what happened is that the epidermis of the fruit was at it's maximum size and any additional uptake of water, I guess from the rain you had, causes splits.

it looks to me like they are already scarring over so no worries as I see it.

Thanks! I have been waiting very impatiently for these tomatoes, it looked a lot worse at first sight.
