Heavy rain can cause pools to overflow, the result of this is that some of the salt diluted in the water will be lost. However it is not as bad a sit sounds because the majority of the salt tends to work its way to the bottom of the pool when it is not in use so the loss of salt is strictly limited.
Salt is put into swimming pools so that the water from the pool can be run through a salt water chlorinator which produces chlorine to disinfect the pools water.

Salt water pools are slightly more corrosive to iron then fresh water pools , however the concentration of salt in them is very small and corrosion is usually not a problem You should keep im mind however that it would be preferable to use materials that are corrosion resistant in these situations as in time galvanized iron parts will corrode.
You can use either type of salt, but the salt for pools is better because it dissolves very quickly. 40 lbs bags cost around $6 at major home improvement chains. It is highly recommended to use nothing but pool salt for chlorine generated pools. YOU CAN NOT USE "EITHER" TYPE OF SALT!!! To save a few cents per bag of salt will cost you an arm and a leg in repairs to damaged equipment ( salt generator). Swimming pools and related equipment do not do well when you cut corners on cost. You may be able to do it on a few items but in the long run it will end up costing you more. USE WHAT IS RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER OF THE SALT SYSTEM !
Salt water pools are in fact chlorine pools part of the salt is turned into chlorine by the salt water chlorinater If it works in a normally chlorinated pool it should also work in a salt water pool. However you should check if there is any metallic ingredient like copper in it as these are not recommended in salt water pools.

This compound is sodium hypochlorite - NaClO.

Salt water pools typically maintain a similar temperature to chlorine pools since the method of sanitization (salt vs. chlorine) does not significantly affect the water temperature. Other factors, such as sun exposure, time of day, and climate, have a greater impact on the water temperature of the pool.
