If you have high ta/high ph fill water it will be an ongoing need to add acid especially with a plaster pool.
Try not to overthink it too much- its nature & we all know there’s no controlling nature!
It seems you have it going well so just continue to monitor & adjust ph when it rises to 8.
Your lower ta is helping out.
Some pools will hang around 7.8/8.0 for quite some time.
If you have an autofill it may be to blame for some of the sudden rise if its adding high ta/ph water.
After the puck is gone you may notice more rise. Those pucks also don’t necessarily dissolve at a steady rate so that may account for some fluctuations as well.
Before long you’ll really know your pool & its behavior during different seasons/conditions & it will be 2nd nature
