All mine are finished, picked last 75 pounds of Kent this past week. I see some Keitt hanging down the street.
I have seen some, less than Haden and some other varieties. This summer has been exceptionally dry in my area and the Kents were not so bad this year, pretty good. I have a fairly large Kent tree about 10 years old and this year got in excess of 100 pounds of good clean harvestable fruit.
My starfruit is dropping enough fruit that the animals are leaving my remaining Little Gems alone for the moment. Gave them a tug today and they were still firmly attached. I have a Maha Chanok in full bloom right now.That Maha tree never cropped before and it dropped its spring bloom due to drought.
There's a big Haden I go by fairly regularly that still has a few dozen fruit on it, but they are all about 40' up. Can't imagine there's much good left to eat on the fruit after the drop.

Haden are usually maturing much earlier than now as you described. I'm not saying it's impossible to have Haden still on your tree but It would be much more likely for it to be Kent mangos and not Haden at this time of the year in South Florida.
Anyone still have fruit on their trees? My last Little Gem held on the tree and came off at a touch on September 10th.
