Yah, the squeal can go away after a while because parts,including the belt, expand from the heat, which reduces the slack a bit.

You probably could use some belt dressing to help prevent against belt slippage on startup.

Belt dressing is just a band-aid, if it works at all. Figure out the real culprit, whether the tensioner or a pulley, and replace it.

Sounds like the A/C clutch or the A/C compressor is bad.
