My forecast where i live is saying the temp is going to drop to 48 at night this week for one day, will my Russian be ok? It's supposed to be sunny and mid 70s the day before and day after. She's on a table off the ground and has a house to go in

Russians can withstand lower temperatures and if yours is full grown, 48F should be ok. If you're really worried, you can just put her into a cardboard box in the house for the night.
