YES, Good time to go, early November.
1. Weather much nicer, not as hot or cold
2. Canton Fair just ended
3. Air fares are cheaper during Oct and Nov. because it's not consider peek season.
4. Five months to learn some basic Chinese.
I don't think there are any University Games ( SZ ) or Asian Olympics games ( GD ) this year that occurred in Oct and Nov like previous years. As a recall, many places in Southern China had to closed down for a few weeks because of the games.
Ediit: Changed "a few days" to "a few weeks"
