## According to Sephardim, one is exempt from the Sukkah and one should eat in the house. However, if one wants to be strict one may wait a little bit for the rain to stop but one should not wait too long which would cause oneself pain on [[Yom Tov]]. If after eating the house the rains stops then if it’s before Chatzot (halachic midnight) one should go into the Sukkah to eat one Kezayit of bread and make Leshev BaSukkah and if it’s after Chatzot one shouldn’t make the Bracha of Leshev unless one eats a KeBaytzah of bread. <Ref>Yalkut Yosef (Moadim pg 140), Chazon Ovadyah (Sukkot pg 122) </ref>

# Some poskim permit sitting under an umbrella held in hand even over ten tefachim, unlike a more permanent umbrella such as one supported by a table because it is still considered sitting under the schach. <ref>  Halichot Shlomo 2:8-20, She’arim Metzuyanim b’Halachah 135:5, and Nefesh Chayah OC 629. Rav Elyashiv quoted in Succat Chayim page 52 however does not permit this, It is that the Brisker Rav did in fact do this himself in Hasuccah hashalem, miluim, 13:4. </ref>
