It's low on gas. The low gas safety switch is kicking in.

x2. freon expands when warm, so it gets just hot enough to kick the low pressure switch closed. but when its cool out its just not enough to hit the switch. at any rate, it cant be working to well cause you are pretty low on freon for that to be happening.
