To quote Roger Cicala:

Weather resistant – A term that consumers falsely define as "weather proof" and camera companies accurately define as "the warranty doesn't cover water damage."

and

As long as we're on the subject of catchwords, it's probably worth tackling 'Weather Sealed' or 'Weather Resistant' next. Many people seem to believe that means 'waterproof'. When you take lenses apart all day you find out it usually means 'we put a strip of foam rubber behind the front and rear elements and scotch tape over the access holes under the rubber rings'.
