The stress could move according to what the person is trying to say:
It will be very hot tomorrow.- This could be used to contradict someone who has said that it wouldn't be hot.
It will be very hot tomorrow.- adds emphasis to the degree of heat
It will be very hot tomorrow.- adds emphasis to the time- it's cold today, but tomorrow...
It will be very hot tomorrow.- adds emphasis to the type of weather coming- maybe it's cloudy or rainy today
