Probably not.
If your pool is 50" deep, and inch of rain is only 2%. If it's 33 inches deep, 3%. What's 2% of 10 FC? .2 FC. You're allowed 1.0 FC loss. If that .2 caused you to fail, you barely passed anyway. How much rain are you anticipating?

Not sure how much. I think I am in luck because it will not start until 11 am. I am just checking to make sure we do not have algae. Thank you

It depends how much rain we’re talkin. If it’s just a regular amount, it should have little (if any) effect. If it’s non-stop hard rain or down pouring then it will likely dilute your water and will mess with the FC lost. We had rain about a week ago that I had to drain a few times so my pool wouldn’t overflow and I kept having to go dump bleach in the pool. Super annoying! But a little rain shouldn’t hurt! If debris blows into the pool, it will use up some FC, though. Just a thought.
I ALWAYS add extra liquid chlorine to my pool before rain/storms just to be on the safe side. No algae blooms yet.
