If you're a person who likes rain in the summer, how would you NOT notice a lack of rain? Even if summer is a little below average in terms of precipitation here (which summers are VERY wet here) I notice it.
Does the weather never recede into the background for you? Like you'd be enjoying the summer, going to the beach or whatever and before you know it it's been a whole month since the last time there was any rain. Would you ever have a month with very little rainfall surrounded by two months with lots of rainfall? That happens all the time here.

Nope, unfortunately I don't exactly have time to go to the beach very often and even then I don't exactly like it anyways. And not getting rain is always noticeable when you have a garden. Also, being a weather enthusiast I enjoy different types of weather. When we've been getting too much of one type of weather recently it's very noticeable.
A month without rain should be noticeable regardless of whether or not you're a weather enthusiast. How can you not notice an entire month without rain? How do you not notice vegetation getting excessively dry or brown? Seriously, you don't even have to be a weather enthusiast to notice that.

People notice if hasn't rained much very fast. Even though technically the airport is right around average rainfall for the month so far most of that fell the first few days so for the most part august has been dry and people are noticing and commenting that.
The only decent climates in the eastern 2/3 of the US would be in the coastal carolinas, and maybe the southern appalachia but even those are kinda cool in the winter. You just dont have anything in here that can rival Buenos Aires or Palermo when it comes to weather
No weather has ever made me more miserable than a Texas summer. I can stand the heat, never-ending as it may be from about May 1 through the end of September. It is the humidity that really puts you to the test. Take the humidity out of the equation, and it's at least somewhat tolerable. The 95 and humid of Houston versus the 101-103 and dry heat of Dallas is a wash in my opinion, although Dallas tends to get cooler quicker once we get into mid- to late September. Cold fronts never seem to make it to Houston in the summer.
Late October to about May 1 in Houston is a great payoff. I always thought November, December, February and March were the best, most comfortable months by far.
I only lived in Houston for 26 months, but a weather memory I have to laugh at was in early December 2008 when the area got a nice blanketing of snow, maybe an inch or so. People were out trying to make snowmen. Being a Midwesterner, it gave me a big laugh, probably the same laugh I gave people when I complained about the heat.
Loblolly pines are pretty common in the southeastern US. They extend as far west as Austin, Texas, as far north as Deleware and as far south as Orlando. I imagine it is the main tree of the Piney Woods.
Pine trees a lush evergreen forest do not make. Broadleaf evergreen is lush, certainly not pines.
Is it still not an evergreen tree? Still proves your earlier statement wrong. You clearly had no idea of the Piney Woods previously, or else you wouldn't have said that it's only a tiny silver on the coast for evergreen trees.
