I saw a guy over the weekend riding a sport bike, in full leathers.  He was definitely dressed to avoid injury in case of a fall, but it was nearly a hundred degrees.  I am sure that the heat index was much higher.  Whew.

Have fun riding in the Texas heat, but stay safe.  Take your time.  Watch out for slick patches.  Avoid riding at night in areas where deer might be crossing roadways.  Above all, despite soaring temperatures, wear a helmet.
