2008 Acura TL AC blows warm/cool then gets cold after driving

This problem just started happening about 2 weeks ago basically the ac will blow warm to cool temperatures (when on the lowest setting) when i start the car up. Then after driving for about 10-20 minutes with the windows down the ac will kick in and gets ice cold. I took it to a mechanic and they said it may be the ac compressor just lacking power because its old but I was just wondering if anyone had a second opinion on here on what it could be.

more than likely it's a $6 relay that controls the fan for the A/C condenser. If the fan isnt running the condenser can't cool off the hot refrigerant! As you drive more air flows through the condenser making the refrigerant cool and provide better cooling!
