I say this happens. The auras are synchronized at the time of spellcasting.
But I suppose you could argue that if the spell isn't in LOS, it can't
find the target and disappears.

I think the 10 hours bit is a bit long. But it's a good question to
ask in case combat with a spell takes just long enough for the target to slam
the door shut on his car.
