White spots on my lemons?

Hi all, I have a lemon tree in my back yard, and I noticed that the lemons this year were a little less moist, and had white spots on them. Anyone know why this might have happened?

Thanks!

Hi Agardengal.
Re your lemons.
On the whole lemons are fairly trouble free and even things like mildew generally affect the tree and leaf and not the fruit itself.
One thing that does come to mind though is a fungus called Septoria.
It can cause white or greyish spots but they do turn much darker later on.
Look up this one and see if it matches your problem.
Sorry I can't suggest anything else.
