Also the Dark Marks were coming back "stronger and clearer than ever"
(Snape's words in the Pensieve scene, GoF Am. ed. 598) considerably
before Voldemort had his body back (which doesn't occur until June 24,
the date of the Third Task). Karkaroff shows Snape his Dark Mark in
March (GoF Am. ed. 519; the month is given on 510). Snape probably
reported the incident to Dumbledore that very night, though Harry
doesn't see him in the Pensieve until some time later. The date is
unspecified, but it's still (apparently) several weeks before the
Third Task.

Carol, who think that Barty Jr. must turn back into himself every
night while he sleeps and therefore would be aware of what was
happening with the Dark Marks
