Most of that controls random changes in wind.

 

With TK's advice, I found that you best set wind speed and direction in the mission text file, at least for single missions (not sure about campaigns). Below is taken from a mission text file I use...the units are degrees and m/s. I use this to model high altitude winds, so no gusting.

 

 

StartWindDirection=90

StartWindSpeed=25

WindGustingAmount=0
