Green pool after rain
It is a good practice to add protection from rain introduced chemicals and debris.
1-2 inches may present a good dilution if properly treated.
4 inches that comes from a storm, left untreated even for a few days, is a recipe for a problem.
I usually save my backwash time to such events, with a free water.
If you adjust the PH first and than shock with 70% Cal Hypo you save yourself a week long fighting starting algae, including the extra expense and frustration.
