Jim and others have answered this, but there is one more possible but
not probable reason some are uncapped.

If there is a dearth of nectar (a prolonged dry spell), they might have
uncapped some cells and are moving honey down. Some years beekeepers in
Maine report full supers in July and wonder where all the honey went in
late August.
