2007 Honda CRV EX  
80k Miles  
AC goes from cold to blowing out warm air

Starting up the car and driving the air is nice and cold for 15 minutes or so.  
It then slowly goes to warmer air over the next few minutes while driving.  
Pulling over and checking the ac line with my hand under the hood it is going from ice cold to warm.  
When it is in this mode of warm air, turning the ac on and off with the dash button you can hear the cooling fan kick in but not the click you usually hear which I think is the compressor clutch engaging. If you turn on and off enough while driving it can sometimes go back to good cold air again very quickly.

The belt seems solid and not slipping  
I have not gotten the pressure of the gas/ freon checked as of yet  
Any Solid Ideas?

I think you need to have the AC system looked at by an independent specialist. It’s probably a low freon charge caused by a leak but the specialists will find the problem quickly.

I have a couple of friends who both had CRV A/C failures and had to pay for them. I found a class action lawsuit that Honda loss and must fix your AC for free.
