Default Whats wrong with these little guys? Leaves losing color?

It seems like these leaves are loosing their color in patches. I looked at tomatoe disease websites but couldnt find anything that was wrong with them. They went into the ground maybe 3 or 4 days ago and then there was a really big rain for two days.





Kinda bummed to be having problems already...

Looks like sun or wind burn they should grow out of it. How did you start your seedlings and harden them off?

I'm no expert and I certainly didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night either but I've seen the same thing when I over watered a few plants. After they dried out for a few days they came back around just fine.

I dont think its that either. Its been raining alot this month so the air is super clean here. I was mostly worried it was some sort of disease. Im leaning towards it being a combination of replanting stress combines with too much water from the rains.
