TL;DR
Hurghada can be very windy even in early October, although stronger winds are commonly expected from the second half of the month. Travelers report that a November stay with a 2.5-year-old can still be comfortable for swimming, but September is noticeably calmer.
In early October, Hurghada can be windy enough that beach items need securing: travelers tie towels to loungers and lightweight drink cups can blow away. Bring practical clothing for seaside walks rather than loose garments.
According to local hotel staff, windy conditions can start earlier than usual in some years—arriving in early October rather than the second half of the month. Travelers booking an October trip should allow for this possibility.
Travelers who visited Hurghada in November with a 2.5-year-old report that they were not cold, everyone swam, and no one became ill. September was considered more comfortable, while a jumper was useful in the evening in November.
