Am I pattur from sleeping in sukkah if the forecast says rain?

Question:

Am I pattur from sleeping in sukkah if the forecast says rain? Are there any sources on this?

Thanks

Answer:

The weather forecast has no bearing in halacha, and therefore the person has to eat and sleep in the succah.

Sources:

Kovetz halachos (Succos) chap. 16 ftnt. 2.
