VRC Alias file - add magnetic variation to $winds

When giving the wind to pilots over voice it has become automatic to (add/subtract) the magnetic variation we see in the METAR. However when dealing with text pilots the $wind variable gives the winds directly from the METAR. Is there a way to make this adjustment in the alias file or by some other mojo?
