So I'm still trying to figure out something I can perhaps "fill" in
between the pickets that can withstand the weather.

In the tile trade we use 1/4" cork as soundproofing
underlayment. I buy it at the tile dealer but just saw
that Home Depot sells it in 4'x50' rolls.
Since this material is pretty water resistant and
specifically made for soundproofing, along with
being pretty inexpensive (70 cents per sq.ft.), it
could serve your purpose.

For $2 per sq.ft. Nobleseal makes a soundproofing
underlayment that is waterproof, along with having
the soundproofing characteristics. It is about 1/8"
thick and very tough and durable.

BTW, the materials can be doubled up for much
improved soundproofing, and are tested and proven
to greatly reduce sound.
