Travelling to Japan in June.

Would it be safe to travel through the Tohoku region in June?

It is save even now. Trains are running along the western coast.

Oh thanks.
I was just concerned about all the fuss about the nuclear power plant...
Or is it just that the media is exaggerating?

What? The Tohoku shinkansen is up again? That's a relief.
I'm going to Japan this summer, but again, I was unsure whether Sendai would be okay by summer. I really want to see my fiance.

According to the JR East website, the Tohoku Shinkansen is only operating as far north as Nasushiobara station. This was dated 3/15, and that's the latest info I see.

Ah yes. True.
Local transportation IS getting a start. My fiance says he's able to get to work via the subway in Sendai City. Hopefully things will be okay this summer.
