Not cool enough

My wife's '99 V70 seems to take too long to cool off especially around town. I know it's hot now and her car is a black wagon with more volume to cool off, but it still seems to take too long to cool.

Weather was in the high 80s yesterday with high humidity. Driving home, it didn't seem to cool until we got on the by-pass. When we got home, I put the gauges on it. When the compressor was on, it held 60psi idling in the driveway. No cycling on and off, it just held steady. When I turned the compressor off, the pressure went up to 90.

What should I look for? Clutch gap? Other? What?

Thanks.
