Fairfax County fire officials say it took firefighters more than an hour to extract the woman, who was pinned to the floor. She was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.

It happened early Sunday morning as strong winds were tearing through the Washington area.

A man inside the house was uninjured. The house has been condemned.
