I am in Florida zone 9b and in last several days it seems to be spreading. Any suggestions on things to try before it gets worse?

It looks fungal to me. Cut them off, bag them. If you’re growing organically, use a copper based antifungal. Use it at half the strength recommended on the bottle, sparing the tops & bottoms of the leaves. Every 7 days & every time it rains. If your plants are really thick with no airflow, consider pruning.
People, including myself, have experienced blossom drop using copper at full strength. So I use it at half strength. You can’t cure it but you can slow it down. Slow it down enough to get your harvest.
