Trans coolers in winter

For those of you running trans coolers who live somewhere it gets cold in the winter, do you have any issues in the winter? I know that even with my copper rad the trans would be continually unlocking and re-locking the torque converter on the highway. Every couple minutes I would see the revs jump by 100 or so, then drop back down a minute later. If this is because my built in cooler was working too well, then I don't see any point to adding a dedicated cooler until the spring. Anyone else notice this sort of thing?
