I noticed as of late the AC does not work....It blows out warm air

In other words I have a A/C refrigerant leak

Dye is usually in the refrigerant to help identify leaks.

I thought the dye used in refrigerant was only visible by using a UV lamp. Is the leaking stuff liquid now? If so, it isn't refrigerant since that becomes vapor at normal atmospheric pressure.

Generally I think that is true about the dye, but it seems to be colored in normal light, too.
