no April foolin'?

This is what the National Weather Service is saying about this holiday weekend's weather:

PERIODS OF WET WINDY WEATHER OVER THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND...

TWO PACIFIC STORMS WILL MOVE THROUGH INTERIOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
OVER THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND BRINGING GUSTY WIND WITH RAIN AT THE
LOWER ELEVATIONS WITH SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS.

THE FIRST STORM WILL SPREAD PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE AREA FRIDAY
INTO FRIDAY NIGHT. RAINFALL AMOUNTS IN THE VALLEY ARE EXPECTED TO
BE AROUND HALF AN INCH OR LESS WITH THE GREATEST AMOUNTS IN THE
NORTHERN SACRAMENTO VALLEY. A PERIOD OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW IS
POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS FROM FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO NIGHT. UP TO
A FOOT OR MORE OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS WITH
THIS STORM. SNOW LEVELS WILL RANGE FROM 4000 TO 5500 FEET FRIDAY
AFTERNOON BUT WILL LOWER TO 2000 TO 3000 FEET BY SATURDAY MORNING
AS THE PRECIPITATION IS WINDING DOWN.

THIS STORM WILL ALSO BRING STRONG AND GUSTY SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WIND
FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY EVENING. VALLEY WINDS OF 15 TO 30 MPH WILL BE
POSSIBLE WITH GUSTS TO 40 MPH. WIND ADVISORIES MAY BE ISSUED FOR
THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY. IN THE FOOTHILLS AND
MOUNTAINS...LOCAL WIND GUSTS OF 40 TO 60 MPH OR HIGHER WILL BE
POSSIBLE.

A BRIEF BREAK IS EXPECTED SATURDAY BEFORE A SECOND STORM ARRIVES
EASTER SUNDAY AND PERSIST INTO MONDAY. THIS STORM LOOKS TO BE
WETTER AND COLDER AND COULD BRING GREATER PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS TO
THE VALLEY AND MOUNTAINS.

PERSONS PLANNING TRAVEL OVER THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY
THOSE HEADING INTO THE MOUNTAINS...SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR
POSSIBLE ADVERSE DRIVING CONDITIONS. CHECK THE LATEST WEATHER AND
ROAD INFORMATION PRIOR TO DEPARTURE.

I don't know- after this past week's forecast debacle, I'm wary of whatever the NWS states. Hopefully (well, for me, anyway- I do love some stormy weather!) the forecast is no April fool's joke. However, if the forecast is accurate, that means some wet Easter bonnets and egg hunts. Sorry, kids.
