postgres=# select date_trunc('week', current_date + 1);
       date_trunc

It turns out DOW isn't available for date_trunc. You can probably use
extract to get what you want. You probably should check that it works
at DST transitions, since the date value is cast to a timestamp and
if DST transitions happen at 0000 in your time zone, you might get an
unexpected answer.

postgres=# select extract(dow from current_date + 1);
 date_part
-----------
         6
