Aye, they drained one around here a few years ago. Then it rained, raising
the water table up to the point where it floated the pool a few inches.

That turned out to be a big mess.


Drained my pool just last year: For what I know it was the first
time.

My water table is 385' below the desert and will never cause my pool
to float.
