Breakdown of אם הכביש יהיה ריק מחר בבוקר, נגיע לבנק מוקדם ונמשוך כסף לפני העבודה.

Why is אם followed by a future verb here? In English we usually say if the road is empty, not if the road will be empty.

That is a very common question.

In Hebrew, when you talk about a real future condition, it is normal to use the future tense after אם:

So Hebrew often uses future tense in both parts of the sentence:

English usually uses present tense in the if-clause, but Hebrew does not have to match that pattern.

Why is it יהיה and not תהיה?

Because הכביש is a masculine singular noun.

So:

If the noun were feminine singular, you would use תהיה instead.
