Present tense + before + future tense?

Hi,

I've learnt that "before + future tense" is wrong most of the time. But about this sentence,

"The time seems to stop at this moment, before it will rush into the Monday later tonight?"

It seems to me that using future tense is more appropriate here? Thanks.

"It's yet to be as bad as it would be later tonight when the next day will be looming large."

No, that one doesn't work, but here are some sentences I found online that have the pattern present ... 'before' ... future.
