Do a search for "starter solenoid", a known problem in hotter weather. If you are getting 12V on the yellow wire at the starter, then the system up to that point is probably OK, but the solenoid may be weak. The Townsendimports.com website has a writeup/diagram for inserting a generic Ford solenoid into the high-current path to fix a weak solenoid. The other possibility is a bad ignition switch, but if the relays are clicking in the "start" position, that sounds less likely.
