I did it last Oct/Nov and it was very warm until I hit Galicia when it poured down,lots of people do the Norte first because they like a more solitary walk,I like the party that is the French way but each to their own.
lots of the accommodation closes end of Sept/Oct but I had no problems finding a bed
I wrote a blog with pics ( link below) I enjoyed my time on the Norte and hope you do too
