Default Weird New Fret Buzz

I was playing my Breedlove Signature Companion Copper CE this evening and noticed all of a sudden that I'm getting some fret buzz on the D and G strings at the 11th fret (with a little hint at the 10th). It's only those two strings, and that one location.

I've eyeballed it, and when the light gets better may take a fret guide to it, but here's a thing:

The weather here has been warm, then cold, then warm and cold again. Of all my guitars, this Breedlove seems to be more susceptible to changes in humidity and environment. It's Torrefied European Spruce and African Mahogany, if that makes a difference. I left it in my humidified guitar room for a week or more because I'd started feeling fret sprout (re-humidifying solved that problem). Could this be yet another humidity issue? I'm taking it back the guitar room again, but I found this fret buzz to be sudden and curious.
