Side wonder you made me think of Eileen but related to these wizard
clocks.  Oh, I like your Crouch idea.  And maybe Dumbledore also had a
Moody hand as well, and it was deceiving him the whole time because
Moody was at Hogwarts just in his trunk.  That is why Dumbledore was
so thrown off.

Anyway, back to wizard clocks.  What if all the Weasleys are at home,
and thus all the grandfather clock hands are in the Home position, and
Voldemort comes knocking at the door.  They would all be in Mortal
Peril *and* at Home.  Hmm, what would the clock do?

And what if Molly need to do many chores.  Which one would the clock
point to?  The more pertinent one?

::Sigh::  Too many questions.
