A/C turns off while slowing down

I had a weird thing happen to me yesterday. While slowing down at a stop light the a/c went warm. Like it turned off. When I started to drive off, the a/c start blowing cold again. It happen the rest of the day. Not sure if the system actually turned off and on. Any suggestions? Anyone in had this issue before?

I think your spot on regarding the a/c being cooler while moving. Just started to dig around why and some think it the temperate control module. Haven't got time to dig deeper. Just wanted to try to pin point the issue before I start to take things apart.

The clutch air gap may be too wide
