What is the current time in new york now

I'm happy to help! However, I'm a large language model, I don't have real-time access to current information. But I can suggest a few ways for you to find the current time in New York:

1. Check online: You can check the current time in New York on websites like WorldTimeBuddy, TimeAndDate, or WorldClock.
2. Use a time zone converter: You can use a time zone converter like TimeAndDate or WorldTimeBuddy to convert the current time in New York to your local time zone.
3. Check your phone or computer: If you have a phone or computer with a clock, you can check the current time in New York by setting your device to the Eastern Time Zone (ET) or Eastern Daylight Time (EDT), depending on the time of year.

As of my knowledge cutoff, New York is in the Eastern Time Zone (ET), which is UTC-5 hours during standard time and UTC-4 hours during daylight saving time. However, please note that daylight saving time can change, so it's always a good idea to double-check the current time in New York.
