Hello,

Dear moderators,

Please don't think that I am posting one and the same question several times. I posted a new question, but as it still doesn't show up I decided to post it again.
Now my question. Is it better to use future simple instead of present progressive, be going to or other future forms in situations when you are not sure that something will or will not happen?
Eg.,
I hope the weather will be be nice.
I hope everyone will come.
She probably will stay till Thursday.
We think he will come home late in the night.

Thanks

You posted it 34 mins ago. Have some patience. We are not servants at your beck and call, and half the teachers here are still in bed. :-|
