Solar wind input file covering recent dates

Hi all,

I would like to do a simulation with WACCM-X for August 2018 using the Weimer electric potential model, which needs a solar wind input file. However, the standard solar wind input file only goes up to the end of 2017. At least, I can’t see anything more up to date here: - Revision 69187: /trunk/inputdata/atm/waccm/solar. Is there a file available that covers more recent dates?
I do have a similar file that I've used for the TIE-GCM before, which should include the data that WACCM-X needs. However, the format is a little different, so I'd have to fiddle with it to get it in the right format. Before I spend time doing that, I thought I'd ask to see if the file I need already exists.

Thanks!
Ingrid

What version of the code are you using?
CESM2.1.5

Have you made any changes to files in the source tree?
No

Describe every step you took leading up to the problem:
Searched the input data repository; searched the forum; looked at files used with TIE-GCM.

If this is a port to a new machine: Please attach any files you added or changed for the machine port (e.g., config_compilers.xml, config_machines.xml, and config_batch.xml) and tell us the compiler version you are using on this machine.
Please attach any log files showing error messages or other useful information.
I run on ARCHER2, but this is not really relevant to my question.
