i run a route for about 30 pools in alabama havent had to many issues all year but recently we had a bad storm about 5 days ago and it caused about 6 of the 30 pools to turn green in their own ways and im confused as to why all the chems are good and check them on a weekly basis but honestly very confused on why this happens when it rains specifically

What do you mean by the chems are good? Are you maintaining the levels to the standard pool industry or to the levels recommended by TFP?
A 6 inch whopper of a storm will only dilute a 60 inch average depth pool by 10%, as long as it's good and mixed.
If the FC is that low that 10% matters, it's not the rains fault.
If 0 FC rainwater is allowed to fester on top for 12+ hours until the pump kicks on, then that could be an issue also.
