Oy.
Just bought and mounted new Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3s, and it's gonna be 65F/20C tomorrow. I have to drive a total of about 120 miles - that's all until temps get cold again. How bad will this be for the new rubber?

It's fine, one trip won't change anything. You're just driving, not pushing the tires into overheat.

That's a relief, and from someone who undoubtedly knows. Thanks, Loki!
