Description
We present the result of searches for the Standard Model Higgs boson produced
via the $H\to W W^{(*)}\to\ell^+\ell'^-$ ($\ell,\ell'=e,\mu,\tau$) process at
a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV with the CDF and D0 detectors
at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. A Higgs particle with a mass greater than
140 GeV decays primarily into a pair of $W$-bosons and the leptonic decay
channels of the $W$ provide a clear signature. This decay channel provides the
highest sensitivity to the Higgs boson at the Tevatron and sensitivity to the
Standard Model Higgs boson is expected with the dataset considered in these
analyses, corresponding to integrated luminosities of up to 8.9 fb$^{-1}$.
Recent improvements to the sensitivity will be discussed.
