Quote:
Therefore on the first night of Sukkos a family should wait approximately one hour to see whether or not the rain will stop. If the rain does not stop, they should go into the Sukkah and recite Kiddush with the Shehecheyanu but without the Laishev BaSukkah. One should wash and say HaMotzi and eat a Kezayis of Challah in the Sukkah. They should then continue the meal in the house. If it stops, one should enter the Sukkah and eat a Kebaitza of Challah inthe Sukkah and recite the Laishev BaSukkah. Even if the meal has ended, one should wash again and recite the hamotzi and the Laishev Basukkah. One should do this until Chatzos at night. This year 2011 Chatzos is 12:41 in New York City.

On the second night, one may start the meal in the house immediately – without waiting that hour, although the Mishna Brurah rules that it is also preferable to wait. We say Kiddush with the Shehecheyanu in the house, but have in mind that you may eat a kezayis of Challah in the sukkah at the end of the meal. At the end of the meal before bentching one should still go into the Sukkah and eat a kezayis of Challah, then you can come back and bentch in the house. While in the Sukkah do not recite a Laishev BaSukkah unless it has stopped raining.
Once again the timing is until 12:41. If it stops raining before this time, wash and recite the bracha of Laishev in the Sukkah. Why?
Because the Kezayis eaten in the rain does not count according to the Rambam, we must try again until 12:41.
