It does get hot here. Start early carry lots of water, don't push yourself if the heat is getting to you. You'll do fine.
But it does get hot here. It is not unusual for us to get temps over 100 with crummy humidity, giving us a heat index of 105 or higher. Being from TX you know what heat does to you. carry lots of water, ride as early as you can, listen to your body.
