Hello StoryMaps Team,
It appears we found an issue with map float. When a map has be configured to "Float Left" layers that are set to display at a set visibility scale, the float functionality seems to change the display scale and causes layers to not display in the configured map. When changing this from float to a small/med/large map the layers display as they should.
Web map settings:

Map Float Left issue (parks set at scale don't appear)-

Map when not configured to float (parks set at scale do appear)-

Is this a bug?
Thanks so much,
Amanda Huber
