Just an FYI, anyone travelling between Sendai and Tokyo and Tokyo and Nagano don’t expect to get a Shinkansen. There’s power outages/damages to the power lines and we are currently stuck on the Shinkansen with no where to go. Keep in mind these delays to happen!

Caught the delay in Tokyo Station, in Omiya now waiting on lines to resume. JR East has been no help in identifying how long delays will be

JR East Announced that Shinkansen will be suspend all day.
also between sendai and tokyo you can use joban line(limited express Hitachi) and between nagano and tokyo you can use shinoi/chuo lines(limited express Shinano/Azusa)
What a mess. We sat around Ueno for a few hours hoping it would start up again. We were going to take a night bus to Morioka but it sold out as we were booking. Was able to book for super early tomorrow and hoping it all works out. We have a 8 day snowboard tour that was supposed to start today so a little bummed.
