You could send values from client to server hub via Query String.

Before the $.connection.hub.start() method you could add something like this:

Client JS Code:

// Replace "some value" with the session value or anything you want
$.connection.hub.qs = { "Name": "some value" };

$.connection.hub.start()...bla bla bla

On the server side on the Hub you could use this in any method:

string ClientValue= Context.QueryString["Name"].ToString();

I did not test with sessions, but of course on client side you could be as awesome as you can.
