Default Help electrical problem with 2000 jeep cherokee

When the out side temperature hits below zero my jeep begins to act funny , when I first start my jeep and for about fifteen minutes after the voltage gauge reads high and then when I turn the heat on the voltage will drop when I'm idling , also my blower Motor seems to quite every so often help I am stumped on what to do ?

Check your alt output at the battery and your alt. also would not hurt to have your alt load tested...

It's a brand new alternator and last winter I was experiencing the same thing and had it checked by a mechanic , they couldn't figure it out. Could it be my my computer ?
