As I leave a stop light, it seems to be shifting hard into the second gear. It was only 1 outside today, so wondering if I need to get car in ASAP or if it was because it was cold. It does fine after that with shifting. Just initial start from stop

Get the car to a dealer to see if there are any TCM or PCM updates they can also scan for any fault codes.

I ran a health report and everything came back okay except a recall. It has warranty so will be calling in Monday to have it checked out and let the dealer drive it to see why it shifts hard. Is it alright to still drive?

Yes, but just to the dealer to get it looked at.
