Luckily vs, Fortunately.

It's raining now.
Luckily I have my umbrella with me. or,
Fortunately I have my umbrella with me.
Which one sounds more natural in this sentence?

I think both are correct. They are synonym

I would say that these two words are exactly the same in meaning. However, I think their use is a bit different.

Luckily - more common and colloquial

Fortunately - more formal, less common
