If I am not mistaken, you could see the transition in wave form there. Geomorph can tell which ones.. I'm guessing the first sloshing was secondary and the final side to side motion was caused by love waves. (yes you read correctly).
Thank you for killing my next 20 minutes of productivity. Off to google.

A strong tremor rocked Puerto Rico early Tuesday seriously damaging homes and buildings. The earthquake triggered an automated shut down of all the electricity, leaving much of the island without power. The first quake was followed 10 minutes later by another slightly weaker event, and then multiple aftershocks. Today’s quakes are part of about 50 seismic events arising just off the coast of southwest Puerto Rico since December 28.
The American Red Cross is working with island authorities and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to understand the extent of the damage and identify immediate needs. There are unconfirmed reports of dozens of homes damaged in the municipality of Yauco and road damage leading into Ponce, the 2nd largest city in Puerto Rico. The repeated quakes coupled with power loss is traumatic for communities still recovering from Hurricanes Maria and Irma.
The Red Cross has identified Spanish-speaking disaster mental health workers, emergency supply distribution managers, logisticians, caseworkers, and operations management staff that are on alert to respond in support of the local Red Cross team. The local government operates shelters in Puerto Rico and had one shelter with 10 people overnight as a result of Monday’s quake.

At least 414 people were killed and almost 6,500 others injured after a 7.3-magnitude earthquake struck near Iran's border with Iraq, authorities said Monday.
Rescuers were trying to find survivors trapped under collapsed buildings but their efforts were hindered in many places by landslides. More than 100 aftershocks were registered, according to Iranian officials.
Many houses in rural areas of Iran are made of mud bricks that can crumble easily in a quake.
Iranian authorities said the quake killed 407 people with at least 5,953 were injured. Iraq's Interior Ministry confirmed that seven people in the neighboring country were killed by the quake, with 535 people wounded.
