Jacket: Mesh or Textile

HI guys - I am in the market for my first jacket and am wondering how the mesh jackets compare to a textile jacket. I am in Texas and it will be HOT!!! soon 99+ and usually no relief from either rain nor breeze. I was just curious how much cooler the mesh jackets really are. Right now I am riding in a brown fleece lined canvas ( hey it's better than no sleeves at all) and it is not really all that hot when I am moving, but at stops, I'm sweltering. If the textile was in a light color, I almost think it would not be so bad, but have never worn one so don't know. I guess I am thinking also about the cooler parts of the year and trying to find a happy medium with one jacket. Input???
