Drying wood in suburbia is a massive problem for me all these are at the front of my house and are South facing and I struggle to get below 20% even with two summers drying

 

Gonna build a proper one this year (hopefully)

You godda get the bottom layer off the ground . A pallet will do . See where the bottom logs are black looking . its where they are " wicking " up the moisture .

 

It could also be all the water running off the roof and splashing off the concrete onto the logs. I found that with my log store which has a front sliding roof and on a hard surface. Put a 6" board across the bottom which sorted it out.
