new version of story maps not working on Firefox

Hello.  Up until last week, the new version of Story Maps (not the classic version) was displaying on Firefox fine.  After the AWS outage, new Story Maps no longer displays in Firefox.  All that comes up is a blank screen with the title of the Story Map in the title bar at the top.  Classic version still works fine in Firefox.  Both versions of Story Maps display in a different browser (Edge). 

Firefox also updated to version 95.0 (64 bit) at about the same time that this issue began.  I don't know whether the problem is related to the AWS outage or the Firefox update or something else entirely.  Has anyone else encountered this problem?  Any recommended solutions?

Thanks!

Thanks, Owen.  I'm using the public account, so I don't seem to be able to submit a tech support request.  I'll try a few more things and see if I can resolve it.

Hello @TxNPrograms

I am still seeing ArcGIS StoryMaps loading successfully in Firefox. Could you give a bit more detail on the exact screen you're seeing (if it is a white blank screen, or an error message), and when this issue began happening for you?

I would also be curious to see if the behavior changes when clearing your browser cache and reloading the site.

Thank you,

Abby

I figured it out! We cleared cache and cookies and it worked!

Thanks!
