I'm assuming your CA reading is CYA? Shock the pool up to about 15 and try and keep it there for a couple of days and hopefully that will kill the algae. It may be that you aren't getting enough circulation in the corners and thus the algae gets started there. That is the problem that Al (Poconos) has had a couple of times. He rigged up a way to hook his vacuum hose up to the return in "blow mode" which causes the hose to snake around the pool. This seems to have helped him. Good luck.

Just to add to what Watermom said, while your pool is at shock level, make sure and brush it, especially in the areas where there is visible algae. That will help make sure that you're getting maximum exposure of chlorine to the algae and maybe stop it from keeping a foothold in the pool after your chlorine levels come back down. After you get rid of the algae, you need to make sure that your chlorine doesn't drop below 3 ppm (and with the very warm temps I would keep it closer to 5) to keep it from coming back.
