You might want to see if the electric auxiliary fan in front of the condenser is coming on. If it gets warmer while stopped at a light or in traffic, this might be the problem, since there's no air going through the condenser to help cool the freon down.

If the aux fan is not coming on, test it, then check the pressure switch at the receiver/dryer. Hope this helps! [:)]

That sounds like you need to recharge the system. Mine did the exact same thing when I got the car, recharged it and it works fine now. It doesn't blow as cold of air while idling as it does while cruising, but that's expected. No complaints here.
