In case of asking current temperature,
people usually say "What's the temperature?"

Idon't know how to ask tomorrow's temperature.
What is tomorrow's temperature will be?
What is the temperature going to be tomorrow?

What I guess is right?

I'm wondering if there is any difference among them, then I took the liberty of putting everything together and sorting out.

1.What is the temperature going to be tomorrow?
2.What's the temperature tomorrow?
3.What will the temperature be tomorrow?

#1 sounds more formal than #3
#2 and #3 sound casual, in case one says to oneself.

Am I on the right track? Question
