Sentence Structure Question

Which of the following sentence is correct;

I"m leaving tomorrow at 4. Or
I'm leaving at 4 tomorrow.
  

Top answer

They are both correct, and very similar in meaning. I see the first sentence as a simple statement of fact, while the second carries with it that 4:00 is different from the normal time. These are only my impressions and have nothing to do with any sort of rule.
