On Sundays through Fridays, run daily at 03:01 am.
On Saturdays, run daily and weekly sequentially, starting at 03:01 am. This prevents daily and weekly from overlapping, while running weekly as early as possible (i.e. as soon as daily finishes) to give it time to finish before monthly starts at 05:30 am. It's probably possible to do something similar with monthly, making it run as soon as daily (and possibly weekly, if the first of the month is a Saturday) finishes, but this is left as an exercise for the reader.
