OK, this is very weird and I can't wrap my head around it...
2 weeks ago, my CYA was a bit low at 60, but I began a travel cycle for work and I didn't really have the time to do anything about it. Since then, it's rained a LOT here in Houston (on the brief time I was home, I had to drain the volume down a bit.
Here's where it gets weird. Due to the rain, salt and calcium are (as expected) lower than last time. By an amount that I would consider reasonable for the rain we've had. But.... My CYA went up. Way up. Like, it's about 90 now, maybe even 100.
I have definitely not added any in the last two weeks and nobody else has. The only thing I can think of is that my reagent is old (headed to Pinch a Penny to get some stuff later, so I'll get some new reagent).
Otherwise, the only difference is that we are in the middle of a heat wave and the pool temp went from 80 to 87 in the space of a week.
I'll update/redact if the new reagent shows a number that makes more sense.
