Bumping this back up for you in hopes that someone who can help will see it.
Inground or above ground and why it is empty?
most likely in ground....
Your soil is so dry that you do not have a high risk of the pool popping out of the ground. You're good for a while but watch out for heavy rainfall or a high water table.
Even with a cracked filter, how did your pool empty out? Your skimmer should have ran the pump dry and lost prime. In either case, you should start adding water back in anyway.
