Is there a way to rotate the map referenced in the story map by 180 degrees?

Hi Lea,

Sorry it's not possible to rotate a map at this time; however, in the future when we update our apps to use the forthcoming 4.0 version of the ArcGIS API for JavaScript this may be possible with customization.

One workaround you might want to try is to create a web scene from your map layers and embed that scene in your story map. You have much more control over the orientation/perspective of a scene than you do with a map. These two blog posts may be helpful if you want to try this:
