[ verb ] make harsh or harsher
Examples "Winter harshened the look of the city" Used in print (Ann Ritner, Seize a Nettle....)The cold settled like a tangible pall over the Mile_High_City , locking it in an icy grip that harshened its outlines and altered its physical appearance ; it had a look of grim stark realism , resembling other cities whose habitual climate was cold , instead of the sprawling bumptious open-handed greedy Western city basking in eternal sunshine at the foot of mountains stored with endless riches and resources .
