Monitoring Databricks SQL Warehouse without Unity Catalog

I am looking to monitor my SQL Warehouse, especially the 'Running Clusters' metric that is available in the monitoring tab of the warehouse. This shows the start and shut down time as well as the number of running clusters:

The issue I have run into is that SQL Warehouses do not seem to have the same types of logs that an all-purpose or cluster has. The documentation notes that the best option is to use System Tables to monitor your warehouse, including using the Warehouse Events table. The issue is that this requires the workspace to be enabled for Unity Catalog. My organization has not transitioned to Unity Catalog yet so these tables are not available. Is there an alternative method for getting access to this monitoring data that does not require unity catalog?
