Padre Island is the second-largest island by area in the contiguous United States, after Long Island in New York on the Atlantic Coast. It is about 113 miles (182 km) long and 1.8 miles (3 km) wide, stretching from the city of Corpus Christi, in the north, to the resort community of South Padre Island in the south.
October is also the first month of the fall season for South Padre Island to be hit by strong northerly winds. There are typically only 2 to 4 northers in October, but they generally hit hard and fast, and there is usually a very quick turn around time from South wind to North, sometimes only and hour or less.
