This jacket has a pretty good waterproof rating of 10K and very decent breathability. So you should be fine as long as you don't roll around in the spring slush :-) It also has respectable amount of insulation - 100 grams should keep you warm, as well as the battery powered heater, which will get you toasty. One reason that you might get soaked could also be that when you fall, the snow "leak" in from the waist. So wearing a short inner layer, and using a powder skirt such that no clothing sticks out from underneath the powder skirt will definitely help keep you dry.
