We see weather events are increasingly warm. That is what I said.

Notice too the increasing precipitation, including snow, expected of a warming world
Or do you resile from that?

Satellite spectroscopy shows top of atmosphere LWR is missing energy in the spectra of the GHGs.

"The basic physics underlying this global warming, the greenhouse gas effect, is simple. An increase in gases such as CO2 makes the atmosphere more opaque at infrared wavelengths. This added opacity causes the planet’s heat radiation to space to arise from higher, colder levels in the atmosphere, thus reducing emission of heat energy to space. "

Nope. The opacity hasn't changed beyond norms.

"The partition of the outgoing long wave radiation into upward atmospheric emittance and surface transmitted radiation components is based on the accurate computation of the true greenhouse-gas optical thickness for the radiosonde data. New relationships among the flux components have been found and are used to construct a quasi-allsky model of the earth's atmospheric energy transfer process. In the 1948-2008 time period the global average annual mean true greenhouse-gas optical thickness is found to be time-stationary."

"The resultant, more humid atmosphere, causes a hotspot over the tropics at altitudes of 10km to 12km). "
"Temperature trends from raw radiosonde data are also inconsistent with climate models, which project an upper tropospheric warming maximum, especially in the tropics"
(Santer et al. 2005; Trenberth et al. 2007; Santer et al. 2008)
"the vertical trend profiles in the tropics did not show the enhanced upper tropospheric amplification as predicted by climate models"

But the globe is warming, 1°C since 1980, 4°C in the Arctic so a reasonable person would conclude AGW is plausible.
"The Arctic region has had its second-warmest year since 1900, continuing a pattern of extreme heat, ice melt and environmental transformation at the top of the world, scientists reported Tuesday."
