Her name hasn't been released pending notification of family members.
No other deaths have been reported, but others are missing, though officials don't yet know whether those unaccounted for are elsewhere.
Authorities say an elderly, disabled woman was found dead in the ruins of her Northern California home after it was overwhelmed by a fast-moving wildfire.
The Lake County Sheriff's Department said Monday that deputies received a call Saturday night to check on the woman, but they were unable to approach her house because of the flames. The agency says the woman appeared unable to leave her home without assistance.
