My pool water was clear but before I was able to remove my cover it split and dumped everything that was on top of the cover into my pool and it looked like a swamp so I toped off the pool with water and vacuumed and shocked it. My chlorine wouldn't stay up at first but my ph and alkalinity was just below normal. Now my chlorine is holding and I have the all the numbers correct I think and have been running my filter 24/7 my water is fairly clear but is still a bit cloudy and has been that way for about two day and doesn't seem to be improving any. I shocked it again last night but still slightly cloudy. Is the pool safe to swim in? usually my water is crystal clear what do I need to do?

I have a 24' round 52" deep above ground pool.
my numbers are
FC 3
ph 7.2
alkalinity 120
cya 40

Thanks
