The felt will easily protect the OSB .....if it doesn't blow off / get
ripped up by the wind.

How much rain are you taking about? Where are oyu located?
Roof pitch?

If you're not getting more than a 1" of rain & its not going to rain
for days (a quick hit followed by sunny weather) ......I might just
skip the felt to avoid the possible damage to the felt.
