Many current photo meters will read in lux, and down to 0.1 lux or so.
I think the levels of interest are from about 0.1 lux to about 200 lux.
(It's ridiculous to have 200 lux outside, but it happens.)

I'd split this as

  min < 0.1 lux  - dark
  min >= 0.1 lux - dim
  min >= 1 lux - low
  min >= 5 lux - sufficient
  min >= 20 lux  - bright

(Full moon provides about 0.3 lux)
