Change wind parameters without restarting the simulation

I am using ros-kinetic, gazebo 7 with sitl and simulating wind on my iris quad. I want to know what is the best way to change my wind properties (speed, direction, gust etc) without editing the world file and restarting the simulation every time. I want to set these parameters while the quad continues on its course. Descriptive approaches are appreciated. Thank you

Is it possible to simulate wind gust effects? how did you solve the problem?

I don't mean to bring back an old post from the dead but has anyone found an update on this? I'm using the newer gz-sim 7.4.0 and I'm trying to update the linear velocity defined in the world sdf file while the simulation is running to represent changing wind direction and gusts.
