That said - you obviously have the choice as to whether to 'invent a meaning' - this doesn't mean it is right or applicable in all situations, it just adds more confusion to something that isn't already well defined. Although I personally do not like wikipedia, the definition there is probably the clearest of many I have read over many years of meteorological observations (just for the record - this dates back to 1976 so no, I am not a 'newbie' in terms of met work...)
