I called T&D and asked if I should take the pool level down a few inches. They said absolutely not. Even a few inches removes several thousand pound of water. And with high ground saturation of water the pool can actually try to float and crack the bottom of the pool.
They said the drains should be sufficient to handle any overflow of water from the pool. It is safer for the pool structure to fill to overflowing than it is to be below normal with a saturated ground. Probably by the time the ground is saturated the level will have returned to normal, but with all the rain we have had, who knows.
