so today its hot out ac is working fine all day on the way home get stuck in traffic for 35 mins ac just STOPS blowing cold its blowing hot air ac light is on.....

traffic improves still blowing hot air I floor it ac comes on and stays on but not that cold even 15 mins later not that cold more cool need to keep windows open or im baking

get home take a digital thermometer and check outside temp 88.6 open windows put ac on drops it to 69.6 put windows up turn on recirc temp drops to 61.4

lines by rad on is cold and dripping lots of water other is hot ac clutch is free I can spin it easy belt is ok

evap was changed 2 years ago no problems since and I run the ac weekly all year

green ac light was on when it was blowing hot air also notice it was shifting rough from 1-2 auto tranny while in traffic engine temp stayed right in the middle like it always does both fans are working

any ideas?? it has always cooled better on the over 80kmh
