How long was it fermenting before this happened?
Your batch is likely going to be fine, it might have some slight off flavors but I'll wager it e'll be beer, and you'll be happy with it because you made it!
Welcome to the forum. What did you brew?

Give it a couple weeks and then check the gravity, but I think you'll be fine. It's hard to judge these things by airlock activity alone.
Take a look at this article as I think it will ease the worry you are having. http://www.brewgeeks.com/the-life-cycle-of-yeast.html
I think your beer will be fine as you had temperature control during the critical time.

I would wait a few days and then taste the gravity sample. If the fermentation was at its peak of activity it will probably taste poorly.
