(a) If I don't eat breakfast, I always get hungry during class.
(b) If I don't eat breakfast tomorrow morning, I will get hungry during class.
(c) If the weather is nice tomorrow, we will go on a picnic.
In (a): The simple present is used in the result clause to express a habitual activity or situation.
In (b) and (c): The simple future is used in the result clause when the sentence concerns a particular activity or situation in the future.
Note: The simple present, not the simple future is used in the "if clause."
Cheers!
