After months and months of drought we finally got a real rain at my house last night. 2 1/2" was in the rain gauge this morning. Problem is, my deck drains are too slow and lots of storm runoff went into the pool. The CL was overwhelmed and the water turned a dark olive green faster than I would've imagined. Since this morning we've put in 12 1/2 196oz bottles of bleach, backwashed and reloaded the filter, and have just gotten to a pale green. I tested the water tonight and got
CL-31
pH-8+
ALK-100
CYA-(50-55)

As soon as I drew the water sample, I added 2 more 196oz bottles.
QUESTION: Should I worry about bringing the pH down now or wait until the water clears more?
