With as much rain as Houston has had in the past month, I wonder if it
isn't a case of too much water.

I guess that's possible. We've certainly had monsoons for weeks on
end. This guy is planted on the edge of an area that stands in water
after a rain. It's located on higher ground. It never sits in water,
but the ground near it stays saturated for several hours after a rain.
This means recently it has been almost constantly saturated.

Does too much water have this effect?

Don't really know, but http://www.floridata.com/ref/t/teco_cap.cfm
says that it needs good drainage.

Those leaves don't look anything like the leaves on my honeysuckle.

Not unlikely. Your picture shows a Cape honeysuckle (not a honeysuckle
but a trumpet vine), and it does not much enjoy wet feet.
