use "if" rather than "whether" when the object clause is negative?


Sentence 1: I don’t know if it won't rain tomorrow.


Sentnece 2: I don’t know whether it won't rain tomorrow.


Which sentence sound natural to you? Is there a rule that we should use "if" rather than "whether" when the object clause is negative?


Thank you very much!
