If you were wondering VS if you are wondering

Are they both grammatically correct?

If you were wondering, I live in New York.

If you are wondering, I live in New York.

Thanks

Can you just give examples on how to use each or is it acceptable to interchange them?

  • If you were wondering, I live in New York.
  • If you are wondering, I live in New York.
  • They are both fine with this kind of expression -- where you inquire about the state of mind of your listener before providing information.
