New pool owner for the second time...

[lstinthot]

water is crystal clear today after Irene visited last night. I had to do some vacuuming this morning to get the leaves out. Now I am sitting around
4 ppm FC
0ppm CC
PH 8
TA 100
CH 190
CYA 60

Will add a gallon of 12.5% tonight after sun goes down. I used 3 gallons yesterday to get ready for Irene, Cl` was around 10 when storm started. Pool level raised 2 inches.

Based on the best guess chart I am low on Cl`. Should I add the gallon now in the middle of the day? Sun is out pool is open. Water temp is probably low 80's.

Thanks,

Since you're low for that CYA level, and since hurricanes bring all sorts of nasty stuff with them, I would add your chlorine now, instead of waiting for tonight. However, honestly if it were my pool, I would just wait and shock the pool tonight to kill off whatever Irene brought with her.
