Plus, don't forget that humidity from inside the house will be going through to the outside as the house "breathes" (hence Tyvek/typar being a barrier to let moisture out, but not in), and OSB isn't always good with humidity. Remember to tape the tyvek seams very well, and overlap pieces a good 6 inches. Just my 2cents.
