This means that it is something that we can predict might happen but we are not sure whether or not it really will happen. We may also not know when it might occur. We know about it but it is unknown whether or not it will occur. Although people think of risks as having a negative impact a risk could in fact have a positive impact.

If it occurs we need to manage the project in one way. If it does not we manage differently.
