Moving that far south it is a different world than Houston area. I
survive the heat with a "cool" vest. Looks like a hunting vest but
has pockets inside where you place chemical ice packs. They last
from 4 - 6 hours. There are days when I wear it inside the house
with the air conditioning running. It gets that hot.
Hope you speak spanish if you are coming to Texas. It is spoken
almost as much as English.
