When a vehicle stops but is still running it produces a lot of heat,since you still feel some cold air from your ac ,it is working,however maybe not up to par or its just not as much as you would like.The reason it feels cooler when you are driving is the ability to get rid of the heat from the motor because the airflow pulls away the heat from the engine and helps the cooling system.
SOURCE: 2005 GMC Sierra heater blowers work fine but only
check the coolant level in radiator. if its low it will only circulate while driving, and not while idling. May also be a bad water pump. See a professional for that.
SOURCE: my ac blows cold air for the first 5-7 min then
have the low side pressure cycling switch tested.

Check the magnetic clutch is engaged on front of a/c pump, have the motor running, a/c on and fan on high, if the centre hub is static the pump in not switched on, this can happen when the gas pressure gets low.
SOURCE: Air Conditioner Problem
the most common problem here is a defective air temperature control blend door actuator, this is what moves the door that controls air flow across the heater core or the ac evaporator core, to replace this requires u remove the dash assembly.
