Only need to vacuum if there's stuff to clean up. You should, however, brush floor and walls. How much bleach did you use yesterday?

I didn't add any bleach yesterday. The FC was 33 at 7am and went down to 30 in the afternoon and and stayed @ 30 all night.

It's good to hear that the chlorine demand has subsided. Now to get a few sunny days to clear the CC.
OK- so, as long as the pool is holding chlorine, the sunlight will lower the CC level? Sunlight lowers CC?
We are on the cusp of a severe thunderstorm with high winds, hail etc. No sun today unfortunately.
I should continue testing, right? If FC is at 30 now, at what number should I add more bleach?

Chlorine and sunlight sould work together to clear CC. But remember, we still don't know what caused the chlorine demand and the CC in the first place, so we're following a general rule and not working to remove a known contaminant.
Yep, keep testing in the evening and morning - doesn't sound like there's any reason to test more often than that. Since each jug adds about 5ppm FC to your pool, add another jug when the FC gets to 28-30ppm.
