A/C working, but no air pumping

I was on a long road trip yesterday. As I got closer to Florida, the temperature rose. Now, I hadn't fun my A/C in almost a week prior. So, I turn it on and barely a trickle of cool air comes out of the vents. I tested it at a fuel pit stop. On high fan speed from inside the cabin everything sounded as if it were working correctly - fan's pushing behind the dash and the compressor was sweating on the pavement - but nothing coming out of the vents. Normally, even with the A/C off, vent air pushes cool air through the open vents. This wasn't happening either, almost as if they were blocked.

Fired her up today. All systems work 4.0. I hope this isn't something that comes and goes. I also checked all the fuses and fan cables when I stopped. All good.

I'd say check your cabin filter, but that shouldn't stop the flow completely. But ya never know until you check.

Hey! My old FL crew.

That would make sense since I'm assuming all flow filters through it before hitting the vents. I actually changed this 10-15K miles ago. I think the stranger part was how it worked fine the next day...
