They probably wanted it to be night in Weiss' shot just because it would look more dramatic. I looked at Remnant's map again and found a possible explanation. Maybe it's not that Yang is not at Patch but rather Weiss' home is directly above Mistral which means these are RWY's locations:

Since we don't the exact locations of Weiss or RJNR, we're free to assume Weiss' home is not directly above Patch but rather a bit to the right side of Atlas. We also know where Vale is located based on the red color of the map which is Forever Fall meaning that Vale is, in fact, not above Atlas so it doesn't share its timezone.

These locations can explain how is it that it's morning with Yang but night with Weiss and Ruby.

However, I can't point out where Blake is not because of the timezone but because of the sea in front of her. If we assume Blake's on Vacuo then why is there a sea in front of her even though Vacuo is a desert? Wouldn't it be more fitting to show a desert. Same reasoning for Atlas. More fitting to show snow. This tells me that Blake might actually be at Mistral which is defined by being surrounded by sea from every direction.
